Journalist turned author, Stephen Petranek, says it's not a matter of if, but when we will live on Mars. Petranek wrote the book How We'll Live On Mars (TED/Simon & Schuster) which became National Geographic's hybrid/documentary series, MARS.
MARS blends a science documentary with fiction based on current science. Season one of MARS debuted in 2016 and season two, currently filming in Budapest, Hungary will debut in spring 2018. For season two, National Geographic channel reunited with executive producers Ron Howard, Brian Grazer and Michael Rosenberg of Imagine Entertainment and co-creator and executive producer Justin Wilkes and executive producer Jon Kamen of RadicalMedia.
For a quick catch up on the fictional side of MARS, the story arc of season two takes us into the future after the first scientific crew successfully landed on the Red Planet. Season two starts in 2043 with the colony expanded to more than 300 settlers including corporations that are focused on mining the resources of Mars.
Season two explores the uneasy relationship between science and corporations. In season two, the show digs into the balance of scientific discovery and exploration with corporate interests and how each can co-exist peacefully in a world where there are no laws, no government, and no police force. Season two shows us how the community on Mars, now comprised of scientists and corporate settlers, debate and deal with the clashes between science and for profits. These themes connect the series back to the reality we live in today on earth such as the Paris Accord or the Dakota Acess Pipeline.

Actor, Akbar Kurtha, who plays Dr. Jay Johar in season two says that in science fiction, the enemy is usually the alien, but in MARS, the enemy is within.
"The future of humanity has been about the death of ideas or the legacy of ideas," said Kurtha. "This is rooted in our collective history starting with the industrial revolution. MARS shows us that we need to learn from our mistakes and collectively work together to survive."
