About Red Mars Blog

I'm an Australian student studying biology at Macquarie University. I have a passion for science and science-fiction and I'm continually looking for new books, films, journals and studies to satisfy my thirst for knowledge and entertainment. I created this blog so I could turn it into an extension and documentation of my life and interests.

It spans 30 light years across and sits 15,000 light years away from us and it just happens to be the most awesome thing out in space, aside from aliens.
