Summary

This atlas is a visual reference on the exploration of Mars. It tells the story of every Mars mission, from the dawn of the Space Age to Mars Express. Each story is illustrated with a combination of maps and annotated photographs and there is information in a separate section on the moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos. It also includes missions that were planned but never flown and looks ahead to future missions as the world's space agencies prepare for a new phase of Mars exploration.
