Is this earth unique? Is there life on other planets? Mariner IV's photos give testimony to a story so big, so awesome that even the scientists and astronomers with all their technology are unable to comprehend. Read the shocking truth in this article. Far out in the vast, foreign void of outer space - over a HUNDRED MILLION MILES FROM EARTH - a tiny, silvery speck neared the end of a fantastic 325-MILLION-MILE JOURNEY. Back on earth hundreds of scientists and technicians hunched anxiously over their unbelievable complex of computers, meters and sensitive instruments. Giant dish-shaped antennae - poised spaceward - seemed to strain - listening! Then it came! The incredibly faint radio signals, homing in from 135 MILLION MILES away. Carrying, perhaps, the most unprecedented technical information ever sought for by man - actual photo-graphs of the PLANET MARS. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
