Have you ever wondered what it would take to send a crewed mission to Mars? National Geographic’s latest series MARS takes a fictitious crew and embarks them on a quest to colonize the Red Planet.
The series utilizes feature film-quality scripted drama, television storytelling and visual effects to put you on the edge of your seat.
The six-part series originally had its global premiere 13 November 2016, and was the highest rated programme in its slot on National Geographic in Malaysia (as sourced from Kantar Media).
The series is grinding to its grand finale on 18 December, with an extra bonus episode on 25 December which contains behind-the-scenes footage.
So far the crew of the Daedelus have braved the difficult landing on Mars, and the challenges of deploying a long-term domed habitat on the Red Planet.
The next episode, episode 5 will premiere 11 Dec (this Sunday) at 10.00pm Malaysian time on Astro Channel 553 and HD 573.
