'The Case for Mars' set to music


Here's more must-see video from the people who turned Carl Sagan into a songster from beyond the grave. This time the Red Planet is the theme, and the Mars Society's Robert Zubrin is the lead vocalist. I never thought of Zubrin's voice as being musical, but he sounds pretty good. And when you have Sagan as well as musician/physicist Brian Cox and astrobiologist Penny Boston as your backup singers, how can you go wrong? "Mars is a world of wonders!"

Wow despite a cutsie sound track, selective editing and voice manipulation; Robert (bless) still coomes across as a fanatic! I give the band three months before they split up due to scientific differences.

Phobos First! (Mars is just another Well.)

If you deconstruct the music, would you get Mars Bars?
