Project Notice:
The Ares Task Force, led by Jim Burk and the Seattle/Puget Sound chapter, has been disbanded. The task force was integral
in the production of Ares issues #1 and #2. Unfortunately, the production of Issue #3 was
done without our involvement, much to our surprise. As a consequence, Jim Burk has chosen to end his involvement with the Ares CD-Rom.
If you are interested in helping out with future issues of Ares -- please contact Mars Society
HQ at info@marssociety.org.
Ares is the Mars Society's CD-ROM
magazine, and serves as a periodical journal and multimedia title. The Premiere
Issue of Ares was sent to all Mars Society members
shortly before the Mars Society convention of August 1999. Past issues have contained magazine-style articles, official Mars Society
materials (Founding Declaration, The Case for Mars, slideshow, bulletins and
more), professional research papers,
software, simulations, demos, high-quality images, maps and
atlases, data
from recent Mars exploration missions, multimedia features, and much more.
Ares is produced by volunteers from the Mars Society and
each issue is mailed to all Mars Society members worldwide as part of their
annual membership benefits. Issues are sold by the Mars Society at our annual
convention and some have been donated to students, teachers, and researchers.
In addition, select copies of Ares are available for sale by Mars Society
chapters at conventions & events.
