为什么值得读
- 提出在火星就地制取火箭燃料的开创性构想
- 深入剖析火星探测的化学细节与技术可行性
- 探讨面对深空探索风险时务实进取的决策逻辑
The Case for Mars 并非遥不可及的未来幻想，也无需耗费天文数字般的数十亿美元巨资。它循序渐进地阐述了我们如何利用现有技术在十年内将人类送上火星；如何真正利用火星自然资源在其地表制造燃料和氧气；如何建立基地与定居点；以及我们有朝一日将如何“terraform”（地球化）火星——这一过程可以改变行星的大气层，为可持续生命铺平道路。

祖布林的《赶往火星》（The Case for Mars）也很赞（我觉得里面的化学部分超级迷人）。http://www.amazon.co.uk/Case-Mars-Robert-Zubrin/dp/068483550... 不过话说回来，现在如果我真落到了火星上（我知道这不太可能）……
Zubrin's "The Case for Mars" is pretty good too (I found the chemistry in it quite fascinating). http://www.amazon.co.uk/Case-Mars-Robert-Zubrin/dp/068483550... However, these days if I ever did end up on Mars (unlikely, I know)…
罗伯特·祖布林几年前就发表过一份在火星上制造火箭燃料的详尽方案。他的书《赶往火星》很值得一读。这种技术在任务经济性上绝对是 game changer。而且你完全可以先送个自动化燃料工厂过去，确认它能正常运转，然后再决定发射载人飞船。
Robert Zubrin published a detailed plan for generating rocket fuel on Mars several years ago. His book "The Case for Mars" is a good read. Such a technology really is a game changer for the economics of the mission. And you can send your robotic fuel factory and make sure it's working before you commit to launching people.
强烈推荐罗伯特·祖布林的《赶往火星》——你会惊讶地发现，利用现有的技术在火星上竟然还能做这么多事：http://www.amazon.com/The-Case-Mars-Settle-Planet/dp/1451608...
I highly recommend Robert Zubrin's "The Case for Mars" - you'll be surprised what else is possible on Mars with current technology: http://www.amazon.com/The-Case-Mars-Settle-Planet/dp/1451608...
……也许火星居民的感受最深吧。顺便说一句，我坦白自己在读了金·史丹利·罗宾逊的《火星三部曲》和罗伯特·祖布林的《赶往火星》之后，对火星殖民产生了一种浪漫的迷恋：http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_trilogy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Case_for_Mars
…Perhaps most of all by the inhabitants of Mars. NB I freely admit it having a romantic fascination with the colonization of Mars after reading Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy and Robert Zubrin's The Case for Mars: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_trilogy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Case_for_Mars
……重心放在了评估危险上（比如挑战者号、哥伦比亚号）。但是，所有这类事业都是有风险的。如果你的目标就是避开风险，那你哪儿也去不了。有兴趣的话，可以在祖布林的书《赶往火星》里找到这些以及更多内容。
…focus at estimating danger (Challenger, Columbia). But, all these enterprises are risky. If your objective is to avoid it, then you never go anywhere. You can find this and more in Zubrin's book: "A case for Mars", if you're interested.
……去殖民一个新世界，那我猜我们在造就一番伟业的同时，可能也能帮到地球上的现状。补充：‘必须的，太他妈赞了，举双手双脚赞成。’ 我能附议吗？我还记得读祖布林的《赶往火星》时，整个人兴奋得不行，真觉得自己能成为一名火星殖民者 :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Case_for_Mars
…colonizing a new world then I suspect we might help things here as well as achieving something wonderful. Edit: "Oh yes. Fuck yes. All my yesses" Can I second this. I remember reading Zubrin's "The Case for Mars" and getting quite enthusiastic about actually being a Martian colonist :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Case_for_Mars
