Bonus program: Is it real? : life on Mars.
Narrator, Lance Lewman.
When NASA rovers Spirit and Opportunity touched down on Mars in 2004, they weren't expected to last long: perhaps 90 days to six months at most. But a short-term science mission searching for evidence of water has turned into a five-year trek across miles of hostile plains, mountains, and deep craters. The rovers have survived dust storms and mechanical failures to explore vast reaches of Mars.
DVD; Dolby Digital, surround stereo, widescreen.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Great story and great view of Mars submitted by vk on February 17, 2011, 10:19pm This DVD proves once again that a well-told real story can be more exciting than fiction. These two rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, exceed all design expectations in roaming the varied terrain on opposite sides of Mars and looking for evidence of liquid water along the way. The animations of the rovers using the Martian scenery they beamed back make it feel that you are there. Check it out!
