What is Mars?

Buckle up, space explorers! Have you ever looked up at the night sky and wondered about that glowing red dot? Join Mira and Finn on an epic rocket ride to Mars to find out if humans could ever make it our second home! Mars might be our next-door neighbor in the solar system, but surviving there requires some serious superhero skills. Did you know that Mars is basically a giant, freezing desert entirely covered in rust? In this mind-blowing episode, we'll discover how astronauts would survive on a planet where the air is toxic and winter temperatures drop to a freezing minus 220 degrees! You'll learn about a genius little golden box called MOXIE that magically turns toxic air into breathable oxygen, and how future astronauts would grow space potatoes using high-tech pink and purple lights. Plus, get ready to explore Olympus Mons, a massive volcano almost three times taller than Mount Everest! From bouncing around in low gravity to watching a stunning glowing blue sunset with two potato-shaped moons, Mars is totally wild. Tune in to see if you have what it takes to survive on the red planet!
