What if you could move to Mars permanently and live there comfortably? You might have to work like a modern-day pioneer, but you would have complete freedom and live in comfortable surroundings, other than the occasional trip outside in a spacesuit. Thousands of people will be able to. SpaceX has a completely reusable rocket called Starship, which is capable of carrying 100+ tons (over 220,000 lbs) to Mars at a relatively reasonable cost. Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet, has stated that his intent at SpaceX is the colonization of Mars. It WILL happen. The author explains in detail how it will happen, including everything from how we will get there to the infrastructure required on Mars. This book may sound like science fiction, but it isn’t. It is a description of how it will really happen in the next 20 years. Come along for a fascinating journey as humans first explore and then move to another planet for the first time.

Outpost
There are still wild places out there on our crowded planet. Through a series of personal journeys, Dan Richards explores the appeal of far-flung outposts in mountains, tundra, forests, oceans and deserts. Following a route from the Cairngorms of Scotland to the fire-watch lookouts of Washington State; from Iceland’s ‘Houses of Joy’ to the Utah desert; frozen ghost towns in Svalbard to shrines in Japan; Roald Dahl’s writing hut to a lighthouse in the North Atlantic, Richards explores landscapes which have inspired writers, artists and musicians, and asks: why are we drawn to wilderness? What can we do to protect them? And what does the future hold for outposts on the edge?
