Besøg Mars handler om, hvad der ud fra en kemisk synsvinkel vil skulle til, for at mennesker kan rejse til og (over)leve på Mars. Det drejer sig fx om rumraketternes brændstof, om energi-, ilt-, vand- og fødevareproduktion på overfladen af Mars, og om flere andre nødvendige processer, som fx CO2-rensning af den luft, de besøgende indånder. Undervejs bringes velkendte, kemiske begreber i spil, såsom molekylers opbygning, intermolekylære kræfter, afstemning af reaktionsskemaer og mængdeberegninger. Udgivelsen er tænkt som et spændende, tematisk supplement til grundbøgerne i kemi, hvor eleverne kan se de forskellige kemiske begreber anvendt i praksis. Besøg Mars henvender sig til kemi C
