The Mars Curiosity mission has revealed far more about the planet and its history since it arrived there two years ago than any previous mission before it. Now, award-winning science writer Mark Kaufman is publishing a new book which examines the Curiosity mission close-up. Kaufman not only explores the current mission and its implications, but also opens up about how future missions, perhaps led by innovative companies like Elon Musk's SpaceX, could shape the future of humanity and help to define our place among in the universe.
