Why Mars?

Let’s be honest. Earth is great and all, but have you seen the housing market lately?

Enter Mars: the rust-colored underdog of the solar system. No traffic, no mosquitoes, and zero HOA fees (for now). Sure, the air is unbreathable and the winters are nine months long, but imagine the Instagram content. #NoFilterNeeded

Mars is the perfect getaway for people who’ve done Cancun, climbed Kilimanjaro, and are now wondering, “What if I took a vacation that required its own launch window?” From sweeping red dunes to selfie-ready craters, Mars is calling—and it doesn’t go to voicemail.

Still undecided? Let’s put it this way:

• Venus is too hot.
• Jupiter is too stormy.
• Pluto got demoted.

Mars? Just right.

So the next time you’re stuck in traffic or standing in line at the DMV, ask yourself:
Why not Mars?
