Hello, I'm Ron Howard. I'm one of the executive producers of Mars, and in fact, I'm talking to you today from the set of Mars, the mini-series. Any story, buddy, name any true life adventure, is a story of courage and heroism, and Mars is as well.

But it's not just the getting there; it's building the base, it's colonizing it, it's surviving. We are dramatizing what we think the experience might be like, but it's not fiction. It's all very much based on our research. The research and the science is guiding our drama.

Everything that is being scripted is based upon the individuals who we're interviewing, explaining to us what the first explorers and colonizers to Mars will most likely have to face. You know, among the things that really make us unique as human beings is our ability to imagine, to dream, to consider the possibility of living somewhere else, whether it's on the other side of that Valley or on another planet.

I hope that our telling of this story of going to Mars and colonizing Mars will stimulate the people's imaginations because I think that will also open their mind to this exciting possibility that is there for this you.
