Description:


    No matter how technologically advanced our unmanned space probes become, their findings will always be a distant second to the observations of actual human explorers. “A Narrow Martian of Error” is a satirical look at human attempts to study Mars. Even technologically advanced missions like  the Mars Pathfinder can only con- tribute still pictures and raw data of  the red planet. Only through sending human explorers to Mars can we truly unlock its secrets.
