Secrets of Mars

Mars is a fascinating and mysterious world, with stories of what was once a much more familiar world written all over its surface. Mars was once a water world, with oceans on its surface near the beginning of the Solar System. Today, we will relive Mars' history and legacy, as we examine the red planet's past, present and future.
