Good Heavens!  The Human Side of Astronomy

Our Fascination with Mars Part 2


Listen Later

Mars has inspired more than just astronomers and scientists. Mars has had and continues to have a profound impact on our collective imaginations, influencing a musical composer, countless artists and writers! 

What was God thinking when He made Mars? Why make such a world? How does Mars declare the glory of God? 

Dan and Wayne explore Mars from the comfort and safety of their armchair rocket ships.  Our armchairs cost much less than a rocket and are far more comfortable and safe.  So come and continue the adventure exploring the little red dot that goes back and forth across our evening and night skies.
