Is habitation of Mars really possible?  Can it happen in our lifetime? In October 2015, NASA declared Mars "an achievable goal".

The Martian is a great film that will keep you glued to your seat.  After a bad storm blows across Mars, Mark Watney (Matt Damon) is presumed dead and left behind.

Considering the fact that small spaces (like elevators) make me queasy and nervous I was surprised to find that Buzz Aldrin's Mission to Mars : my vision for space exploration  had me wondering if I would be willing to travel to Mars.
