Invaders of Mars!

Running time: 24 minutes • Released August 2008

Under the care of Emmy award winning space artist, Don Davis, this beautifully crafted show highlights our ongoing exploration of Mars. We explore the Martian surface as seen by Earth's various spacecraft "invaders" and use the data gathered to explore the red planet as only CGI can. We fly over the great chasms, canyons and volcanoes, descend amid the ice of a Martian polar cap and are buffeted by swirling dust devils. Blinded by the planet-wide storms which engulf this world from time to time we emerge to discover a whole new world which is the red planet Mars. The show will include an optional five-minute end sequence of stereo imagery that audiences can experience with inexpensive disposable glasses. The invaders have landed!

Narrated by Tom Baker of the BBC's Dr. Who.
