Mars Life
Ben Bova will sign his lastest book, Mars Life, which is a conclusion to his earlier books featuring Jamie Waterman, Mars (1992) and Return to Mars (1999).
Pulsing with intensity and action, and resonating with hope and purpose, Mars Life by legendary author Ben Bova will draw fans and newcomers in from the very first page. Bova deftly captures the excitement of scientific discovery and planetary exploration in a compelling story, balancing action and plausible political intrigue.
Scientist/professor Waterman is caught in a struggle to prove that life once existed on Mars. The increasing influence of religious fundamentalists and a global energy crisis threaten to foil the greatest scientific discovery of generations. The U.S. govenment puts up blocks at every point as he and his wife
wife return to Mars in a last-ditch effort to save the Mars program’s funding and uncover who the vanished Martians were.
