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 contribute still pictures and raw data of the red planet. Only through sending human explorers to Mars can we truly unlock its secrets.
