Between Mars and Svalbard
Description
A group of scientists from Portugal join on a quest to find out more about Mars. They study images sent back by spacecraft. In some images, the terrain looks like a huge jigsaw puzzle of polygons, much like dried out ground on Earth. These structures develop because of ice in the ground. Similar terrains are found all over the Arctic regions on Earth. The scientists go to Spitsbergen (Svalbard) to study these features from nearby.
