Beyond Earth

Rate this book
The first mission to Mars was never just about reaching the Red Planet—it was about changing the course of human history.

When visionary billionaire Alex Carter decides to embark on a daring mission to Mars, he knows the stakes couldn't be higher. With only one launch window available, he invests in breakthrough fusion technology and dispatches a fleet of rovers to build a base at the foot of Arsia Mons. But as the crew prepares to leave Earth, they discover last-minute risks that threaten everything.

On a perilous journey through deep space, the crew faces the harrowing realities of microgravity, isolation, and life-support failures. When they finally reach Mars, they must adapt to the planet's harsh environment. As they begin terraforming, a discovery in a hidden cave—a relic from the asteroid Allan Hills 84001—unlocks the secrets of creating an atmosphere. But time is running out, and the crew soon realizes that their mission is about more than survival; it's about the future of humanity itself.

Will their courage, ingenuity, and determination be enough to overcome the dangers of Mars and unlock its potential for life? Or will their discoveries be lost in the dust of the Red Planet?

Beyond Earth is a gripping, high-stakes adventure that explores the limits of human endurance, the thrill of discovery, and the dream of turning Mars into our next home.

This book is hilariously bad. As a space exploration nerd and former aerospace engineering student, I think I am qualified to say nothing in this story is even remotely realistic. The writing is very repetitive and inconsistent.
And yet it was kinda fun?

Their engine is so amazingly powerful that the trip to Mars takes only 35 days and yet they have to endure microgravity the entire time, except of course whenever someone needs to dramatically collapse against a wall they suddenly appear to have normal gravity. The stars outside the space ship's windows shimmer as if deep space has an atmophere. The crew randomly runs out of food and water and even oxygen during the trip and yet manages to reach Mars alive. They face very similar CO2 crises three times and yet learn nothing from the experience. But rest assured, everyone's eyes will glint with renewed determination no matter what.
