A vision of space travel and exploration to Mars in an as yet fictional joint mission between the U.S. and the then Soviet Union to fuel a rapidly growing infrastructure on the Moon and on Mars by 2005. Brian O'Leary, former NASA astronaut, presents a readable series of scenarios as he tracks the fictional space voyage of US and Soviet astronauts to Mars in 1998-1999.
