Mars and the Outer Planets
6. Red Planet
Cold, arid Mars, where next we’ll land. Polar caps, volcanoes, the biggest canyon ever seen - Mars probably once had oceans.
7. Jupiter
Bigger than the other planets combined, a turbulent gas giant with many moons - a voyage through this mini Solar System.
8. Saturn
The many rings and moons of this exotic gas giant. Preview of a landing on Titan, a moon like primitive Earth.
9. Uranus & Neptune
The outer giants. Uranus - a crazy tilt and a chaotic moon called Miranda. Neptune - tempests and a moon spurting geysers.
10. Realm of the Comets
The origin of comets - the Oort Cloud and the Kuiper Belt. Perhaps tiny Pluto isn’t a planet at all.
