The idea of living on Mars captures the allure of the frontier, but this tantalizing dream diverges from the scientific exploration of the landscape. As we document greater swathes of the planet, Mars’ surface becomes a neat grid of tidy lines. The copper background cracks and crumbles around the printed planet, establishing an otherworldly environment with a somewhat reddish hue.
