Sponsor Information

Mars in the Mind of Earth started in 1996 as a simple list to help me identify books and short stories I owned about Mars. As the list grew, I started adding items I wanted, and before long it grew into a small bibliography which I hoped would be useful to others.

Seven years and hundreds of users and citations later, MME is still around. My hope is that it will continue to grow, with new items added as they appear but also going back to include references to as much of the earlier literature as can be found. With help, it can be an ongoing record of humankind's longest fascination with another planet, and a tool to learn more about both Mars and people who have followed their hopes, through science or imagination. For more information about plans for the growth of the site, see Origins and Goals.
