    "description": "t is 2025. Four astronauts undertake a nine-month mission to the desolate planet Mars with one goal in mind: to start a society that is more beautiful, humane and sincere than the one they left behind on Earth.\n\nBut the explorers are not alone in space. Billions of people at home are tuning in to the reality TV show that documents every move on their journey into the unknown. Jonah, Tatyana, Nicholas and Celia \u2013 international scientists with an unflinching desire for adventure \u2013 become heroes to all of mankind. But when tensions rise and personalities clash, the astronauts find themselves living in their very own space opera. \n\nIn One-way trip to Mars, jealousy, discord, boredom and life-threatening solar winds wrestle with pioneering spirit, optimism and idealism during a voyage that will live long in the hearts and minds of all those who witness it.\n\n(Appeared in Dutch as Enkele reis Mars in 2017)\n\nReviews:\n\u2018The end of the book is truly hopeful\u2019 \n(Nederlands Dagblad, Dutch national newspaper)\n\n\u2018For all space aficionados who don\u2019t have the guts to travel to Mars themselves\u2019 (Volkskrant, Dutch national newspaper)\n\n\u2018A good story about how we, people, always take ourselves with us wherever we go. *****\u2019 (Explore Mars Magazine)\n\n\n\nJohan Bakker is the author of Behind the Rainbow, the biography of the American singer Eva Cassidy (1963\u20131996), which won the British People\u2019s Book Prize in 2012.
