Can you really live on Mars?
----Yes, you can. In fact, many already do.

Moving from Earth to Mars is no longer just science fiction----it's becoming a real option.
This book is a practical lifestyle guide written as if by people who have already lived on Mars for 100 years, addressed to future Earth migrants preparing to make the leap.

From how to build a home, manage your air supply, and choose the right pressure suit, to parenting, education, mental health, religion, romance, law, work, aging, and even death----
What does it really mean to "live normally" on Mars?
This guide explains it all, with vivid and specific details of everyday Martian life.

• "How much is rent? The realities of buyers, renters, and everyone in between"

• "Martian ramen isn't really ramen anymore----but still"

• "Why your pressure-regulating undersuit is your real fashion statement"

• "What is High-Gravity Depression? Symptoms and coping methods"

• "The birth and rules of Zerock, the sport you can only play on Mars"

Life on Mars is more inconvenient than you imagined----but also more human.
Whether you're seriously planning to move, just curious,
or simply looking to rethink how we live on Earth----
this book will make Mars feel just a little bit closer.
