Tosh, formally of the House du'Vaul, is on the road to make or break his fortune. Bors of the Northern Mountains is a barbarian needing escape from the authorities. The two are brought together by a mysterious figure and given a quest, to find the Eye of Saturnalia. On the Crimson Planet. This is not a serious story. Not in the sense of hard science facts and what we know. This is more fantastic. Instead of reaching into the future to what could be, I have reached into the past, into the times before people knew Mars was a dry, dead world with no air. Instead, it held giant, four-armed monsters and savages, where Venus was a lush jungle world under a constant barrage of rain, and where the outer planets were so massive their satellites held life foreign to humans in more than one sense. And beyond that, deep in space, the bug-eyed aliens and strange creatures existed that shocked, terrified, and entertained us.

Mars is our nearest neighbour in the solar system, with the exception of our own satellite Luna. It will be considerably easier to hit the moon of course, but what will we find when we get there? Plenty to interest the scientist, the mining engineer, and the cosmologist. But the Biologist will find only fossilised traces of Lunar life, if he finds anything at all. On Mars the story will be vastly different. We know that there is vegetation there. We still argue about those enigmatic canals. Are they optical illusion or...? What if...? What if an intelligent civilisation cut those great water courses? What if that civilisation still exists? Is man the only intelligence in God's great Universe? How will earth's envoys react when they first encounter non-human intellect for the first time? Will the aliens be friendly, or...?

The ice was melting due to the mirrors placed in the Mars orbit and facilities were being founded to create greenhouse effect in the planet but it was not enough to provide the same living conditions in the Mars that were available in the world because the heat couldn’t spread the whole Mars equally. If you want to heat the equator, the polars start to cool faster and if you want to heat the polars, the equator starts cooling, for this reason, you must place artificial magnetic field producers in the orbit that was one billion KM far. Even the classical MR machines at the hospitals in the world could protect the Mars atmosphere in some extent. What must be done was to design these machines in accordance with the crimson planet. Let’s keep in mind that without magnetosphere, the atmosphere wouldn’t be thick enough.

""The Red Planet"" takes readers on a captivating journey through our evolving understanding of Mars, from ancient observations to cutting-edge scientific discoveries. This comprehensive exploration delves into Mars' physical characteristics, the search for signs of life, and the potential for human colonization. The book argues that Mars represents both a scientific treasure trove and a possible second home for humanity, emphasizing the importance of continued exploration for advancing our knowledge of planetary science and the origins of life. Structured to guide readers through increasingly complex topics, the book begins with Mars' basic characteristics before examining its geology, including massive volcanoes and polar ice caps. It then explores evidence of past water on Mars, such as dry riverbeds and mineral deposits, which point to a potentially more habitable past. The search for life on Mars forms a crucial section, discussing the requirements for life as we know it and how Mars may have met these conditions. The book concludes by exploring the challenges and ethical considerations of human colonization on the Red Planet. Drawing on a wide range of evidence from satellites, rovers, and Earth-based studies, ""The Red Planet"" balances scientific rigor with engaging narratives about the people and missions shaping our knowledge of Mars. Written in an accessible yet authoritative style, it offers practical insights for readers interested in Mars exploration, including how to observe Mars from Earth and understand news about ongoing missions.

Twelve years after the events of Invasion!, Earth prepares to retaliate by mounting an expedition against the Martians. With great difficulty, our Space Force establishes bases on the two Martian moons, and also on the surface of the Red Planet. But a series of firefights demonstrate that the aliens hold the upper hand, and that communication between the species is the only thing that will keep our bases from being exterminated. Alex Smith once again must step forward, and offer himself as part-prisoner, guest, interpreter, guinea pig, negotiator, and--ultimately--the last, best hope of mankind. But finding any consistent and understandable method of communication with a truly alien race is almost impossible. Can the gulf be breached in time? War of Two Worlds, Book Two.

Mankind is terrified of the imminent transformation of the sun into a giant red ball that could explode at any moment. Meanwhile, palaeoanthropologist Freya Von Hauser makes an extraordinary discovery in Europe. She finds several bio-metallic exoskeletons that date back 60,000,000 years. But for some reason, the scientific world does not want to publicize her findings. Freya finds an unlikely supporter in Cobalto - a Martian-American and former New York City taxi driver - who joined the mob on Mars to pay for health insurance. This sci-fi adventure is also peopled with a space tycoon, a lunatic hippy and a bizarre professor, all trying to resolve the mystery linked to the origin of the human species. Perhaps they will even find the key to saving the dying solar system.

What makes up reality, and how? What kinds of entity are fundamental to reality, and how do dependent entities depend on the fundamental ones? How does one entity metaphysically ground another? These questions are central to contemporary metaphysics. The papers in this collection, written by a new generation of metaphysicians, address these and related questions. They investigate the metaphysical concepts of grounding and fundamentality, and the relationship between the fundamental and all the other parts of reality. Together, these papers represent the cutting-edge of a central topic in contemporary metaphysics.
