A holiday destination, that has 687 days of sunshine a year and the most stunning scenery that mankind will ever see has got to be worth a visit, and when the destination can even be seen from your own home there is no reason not to go?
This book will tell you how to overcome the few minor obstacles in the way, so that anyone who fancies a holiday or gap year with a difference, can give this lovely place a visit.
For too many years mankind has put off going to our nearest planet, there are too many people thinking about obstacles that are quite easily overcome. This book describes how to overcome every hurdle on the way to Mars. The book will also look at the many sources of free assistance in getting there, for example, the perfect space dock to depart from, homes already built on the Planet, an abundance of natural energy, plenty of ingredients to make oxygen, an abundance of water, and also why the climate does not feel all that different to the temperatures on Earth.

Getting There
This is the easy part! Compared to ancient Earth explorers we can see exactly where we are going, all of us on Earth can see Mars from our homes. Ancient Earth explorers did not have a clue what they were going to find, they had no maps or charts, had to deal with tides and sometimes had unfriendly natives when they arrived, but their biggest fear was they did not know if they were going to fall off the edge of the flat Earth into space. A voyage to Mars has none of these problems unless there are Martians living underground on their planet.
There is one big difference between ancient explorers and modern day space travellers. When ancient explorers set off, some people would doubt that they would get to their destination, with space travel, there are some people that doubt they have been to their destination.
As they both travel around the Sun in different diameter orbits (Earth closest) and taking different amounts of times to do a lap (Earth 365.25 days) (Mars 687 days), the closest that Mars ever gets to Earth is about 54.6 million Kilometers and at its furthest just over 400 million Kilometers, so the timing
