Mars by Ben Bova

To the harsh landscape of Sol's fourth planet thirteen astronauts, the best scientists from eleven nations, on a history-making voyage into the unknown. The international crew of the mission have spent nine months in space, crossing 100 million kilometers, to reach the last great frontier. Their voyage is fraught with disputes, both personal and political, and their time on Mars limited to 'footprints and flags': yet while there they come face-to-face with the most incredible and shocking discovery of all. Six-times Hugo Award-winner Ben Bova combines masterful fiction and scienrtific fact in his most ambitious novel yet. Earthbound politcis, space technology and the writer's imagination combine with sheer storty-telling in this epic noval that captures the mystery and wonder of an alien frontier. This 1993 New English Library Paperback is in good condition.
