ONE OF THE TIMES BEST SCIENCE BOOKS OF THE YEAR & A HUGO AWARD FINALISTTHE INTERNATIONAL
BESTSELLERTHE #2 MOST GIFTED BOOK IN THE SOLAR SYSTEMFrom the bestselling authors of Soonish  a
brilliant and hilarious off-world investigation into space settlement Earth is not well. The
promise of starting life anew somewhere far  far away - no climate change  no war  no Twitter -
beckons  and settling the stars finally seems within our grasp. Or is it? Bestselling authors
Kelly and Zach Weinersmith set out to write the essential guide to a glorious future of space
settlements  but after years of original research  and interviews with leading space scientists
engineers and legal experts  they aren't so sure it's a good idea. Space tech and space
business are progressing fast  but we lack the deep knowledge needed to have space-kids  build
space-farms and create space nations in a way that doesn't spark conflict back home. In a world
hurtling toward human expansion into space  A City on Mars investigates whether the dream of
new worlds won't create a nightmare  both for settlers and the people they leave behind. With
deep expertise  a winning sense of humour and art from the beloved creator of Saturday Morning
Breakfast Cereal  the Weinersmiths investigate perhaps the biggest questions humanity will ever
ask itself - whether and how to become multiplanetary.
