Mars - Season 1
In this controversial series, we face many challenges and surprises during this historic task. In 2033, a space team will perform the greatest human mission on Mars, which is supposed to be a concrete reality at the time. The crew of the team called Daedalus, which is doing the job, will face a serious emergency on the planet's surface when the ship's landing system is exposed to a lack of contact with others, which would be a threat to a mission that could bring Mars to Earth in a realistic form.

The format is ambitious, and if some parts don't entirely work, there's still a lot to like and learn in Mars.

Save for the eerily gorgeous production design, the 2033 half offers little to Mars's raison d'être: to inspire.
November 14, 2016
While fleeing this planet for a new life on Mars may be tempting right now for more than just scientific reasons, Nat Geo's intriguing effort to show us how such a trip could actually happen proves convincing on its own.

Mars becomes a tribute to the best instincts of humanity and an almost hypnotic recruitment drive. Space travel will not be easy. But it's the best hope we have. And what an adventure it will be.
