This touched me so deep. I'm not a rich guy and I'm certainly don't have the best lifestyle but when I think of space, of the stars and beyond. I'm at ease and everything goes away. Different planets, Different solar systems, how vast everything is and everything that is out there just waiting. This made me tear up because I haven't had much of a teenage life and like this girl in the show I haven't found my place yet and I hope I do. I feel like my place is out there among the stars and sadly I can't reach them. At least not yet. nonetheless. This show looks fantastic and I'm definitely willing to give it a go.
Of ALL National Georgraphic documentaries, THIS needs to be available beyond the USA. Every kid, every teen, every young adult needs the inspiration to be there in 2033 or after to take part in this endeavour.
HeiiWat ,JoeAnim IDN. everything in life is about efforts its not about how much intelligence or "scientific mind" you have that matters in fact that is totally irellevant as your brain will adapt. you may not be good at math or science but it does not matter . what is important is how dedicated you are. you can acheive anything you want in life ( including world domination if that is what you want) you only have to be ready to put the effort into it and with enough efforts and perseverance you will achieve your goals. you and ""mabe even me (i hope)** live in an age where very little is impossible and very possibly an age where public space travel will be possible. i have had the dream of going to space since i was 10 i have asthma , got refused by the military my chances are next to none ... i still keep fait and hope . if not i think my last wishes would be for my ashes to be sent into space. but one day we will get there if we keep hope and stride towards our goals .
Goodwine All I need is to stop analysing everything, to stop thinking about what I have to say when people ask me about this and that before I even meet them and to take control of my thoughts, feelling terrified about people's judgements, how they look at me and what they're gonna ask to the point I bearly leave my house... I just want to be normal but the type of people I HAD to deal with every single day are making it harder for me to be me and stop worrying about almost everything. Thank you for your comment. Have an amazing day 💛
Learning to be present in the moment would be helpful, but only one part of it. I know the struggle. Are you familiar with Myers-Briggs personality typing, because you sound like INFJ, which I am myself. If not INFJ, perhaps INFP. Groups of similar minds exist on facebook, reddit, etc. so you can find people just like yourself and get insight and help to reach your amazing potential. Let me know if I can help.
spacechampion Thank you so much for caring but my present moment is so aweful so is my past. There's so much going on and I have no one to talk to because it's personal. And because I've manipulated and lied to so many time now I can't trust no one so I'm stuck :"(... I really need help. I need to runaway. I just want to be happy that's all I want.. INFJ do they have a RUclips Channel?
You know, I don't know your situation but I think I kind of experienced something like that. You have to stop caring about people that damage you and the change will come almost automatically, if and only if you do your part as well.
Ricardo F It's not that easy when youvlive with them. And also not easy when you have no way to go.. I HAD to choose between two horrible options and I had to pick and here I am today still suffering from something I had no control of. I am strong believe me. I have been throught so much since I was a child but I can't live like this anymore. I need a way out but no one is there for me EVER....
maixck when they first arrive at the house and are bringing boxes in, Hanna’s Mom tells her to take the box to her room, she goes up the stairs and for a moment she stands in front of two rooms, on the left the room is blue or green and on the right its rusty red. Hanna hesitates for a moment then walks into the red room.
As an Asian American female, I have to say it's just really nice to see a story centered around these girls who will grow up to be involved in such an important chapter of human history. No dependency on stereotypes, just them being people with hopes and aspirations like any other person.
Why do you have to say this as an asian american? We're all human, and I can relate to these kids even though I don't look like them or share their "heritage".
Nimos Nael Because you don't often see stories centered around people who look like this over here. Of course we're all human and of course you should be able to relate to any character regardless of physical appearance or any other difference. I relate to other characters even if they don't look like me, but I appreciate it when we're given some representation. There's no denying media has a big influence on people's perceptions.
"I'm becoming a weird kid at school." "You know who is weird? Einstein was weird, Picasso, Mozart. A bunch of weirdos... You may not see it now, but one day, when you look back, you'll be grateful for being weird."
Today is Diwali Here In India, one of the biggest Indian festivals I'm supposed to be outside meeting relatives and friends, but all I needed to make my diwali special was to watch this Video, truly one of the best videos I've watched this year, I could totally relate to this, such an inspiring video, I'm definitely not going to forget this feeling for a while, glad Nat Geo made this series. #getyourasstoMARS
BlueHawkPictures what she threw away was kimchi-laden lunch boxes.... You have no idea how much kimchi smells when it's not refrigerated.... So I can totally empathise...
little bitches get inspired by these soft things. grow up and become a russian businessman, pay for 10 of these fucking rockets and have a vacation on mars
This is why I'm going to ASU for Planetary Science and a minor in Geo Physics rather than pursuing a degree in Astronomy. I always thought to myself, "I'd love to have been born in the 1930's so I could've been the perfect age to work for NASA in the 60's and 70's." But then a few years ago I heard of NASA's planned manned mission to Mars in the 2030's. I'm 24 currently. I don't have the expectation to be on Mars, but I hope to be apart of that team. Even if I fail, I will die knowing that I tried.
What a beautiful backstory, had me quite emotional to be honest. A kid, all alone, shaping her dream, taking the first baby steps to her destiny. Just beautiful. Can't wait untill November 14th :) :)
You can! All you need is 2 PHD's in Physics and Engineering, a Masters in biochemistry, 5000 hours of test figher-pilot experience, a perfect medical condition with no previous record of: Asthma, diabetes, heart issues, etc. etc., perfect 20/20 vision, with a mind that is perfectly stable under all kinds of pressure, be of American nationality, go through top-secret level security clearance, have 350 excellent references (ideally workers/other astronauts who previously worked at NASA) and the stubbornness of applying again and again, after going through a countless number of rejections prior-hand :) ... And that is barely a joke.
Just wow, such a great pilot so inspirational and inspiring. I hope my daughter will find inspiration to pursue science and the thoughtful exploration of the universe.
I criedied, I loved every moment of it. This has inspired me to not kill myself and reminded me WHY and WHAT I want to be. Spread the love for the unknown, spread the love.
Hey Natgeo! Thank you for putting this and all of your other videos on RUclips for all of us to enjoy. This was a wonderful short, and Before the Flood was incredible too!
Yes, but remember the astronaut saying that she misses her mother and of her sister at around 31.14 or 31.15. This would suggest that she does have a sister and that sister is probably the waitress.
this was great but KIDS, please don't ever go hiking by yourself like hannah did. 9 times out of 10 you'll be just fine, but if something goes wrong and people don't know where you are, you could end up in real danger. be safe. always tell people where you're going and when you expect to be back and again, please don't go alone.
Wait, what do you mean? Like David pointed out, there aren't that many (really aren't a lot of characters over all). There's the grumpy kid in school, there's the old wise guy and there's like a dude running a thrift store? How do you mean they're "portrayed"?
G8gleTookMyAccount Really? Who's the very first male you see in this vid? What is he shown doing? What's her reaction? *EVERY* male shown in this vid right up to the introduction of the old man. And, of course, at the end when our heroine achieves her goal- the astronaut talks about what's important to her; her family. *Who* in her family does she think about? Or, more tellingly, who *doesn't* she think about?
I really have no idea how I got here - BUT I LOVE IT! I got goosebumps just because it felt so real and so close to what I experience and want. I don't know if the actual series can keep this up, but the prequel was just perfectly fitting to what I desire, what I am. I'd never really want to go on mars myself, but I'm craving for the day that we can finally accomplish being a multiplanetary species. Also meanwhile I finally got back to my passion for science that actually kicked me out of school cause of being nothing but alone and desinterested in the major subjects. The struggle let to drug abuse and lots of parties, but therefore also a lot of self destruction. I did it to be somewhere in the sociaty, but actually I'd prefere changing it and bringing it further. I'm so thankfull for directors that do impressive stuff like this. It will lead our kids to better lifes in the future.
This is so beautiful, the cinematography, the music, the concept, just everything, this is legit better than most Hollywood movies that came out in 2017
Awesome movie. This is what I have tried to do for around two years, unsuccessfully so far. I have lots of videos of me listening to the ISS talking to schools as well as me talking to other hams through amateur radio satellites. 73, John Brier KG4AKV
If this short is an indication of how the rest of the series will be, it should be really good. Nice symbolism of the room colours. And the contact to the ISS - and using the right call sign too, pretty awesome. :)
When I was a kid, begin an astronaut was one of my dream. I've done a lot of things such as painting the solar system, read books about space and anything that a kid could think of. and then time passed by. I started to perceive that is somewhat impossible and then I started to forget about it. But after watching this video, when the astronaut responded to Hana, I just got an tear in the eyes. I was so grateful for her. I think that if I become a dad in the future, I would support my son/daughter to pursue their dream in every ways.
Wow. That was eye opening. Inspiring. I relate to Hana, and this made me realize that I should be more grateful for my surroundings. Truly an incredible film. It was also really interesting to see Staci play Katie, she graduated from my current high school and she is an amazing actress. I definitely give this film a 10 out of 10 star rating👍
This reminds me of the film Contact (1997), loved that movie and this is quite close to it just a bit more realistic. I'm just an artist and to me astronomy is so magical, at times it's beyond my comprehension that the way it can make you feel empowered and still make you feel so tiny and worthless in the bigger picture...
a feeling is even less than a fraction of a second. The feeling inspired by this video will not last even in my lifetime. I am lost in the sea of stimulus as usual, too afraid to see, too excited to hear, too sad to think. My perspective changes a bit more slowly than my emotions. I may not find what i wanted, but let this be my record.
Absolutely beautiful and hopeful. I'm looking forward to it. It's always true that the most wonderful people don't fit in because there are just some people that are above humanity. That push the bounds of what a human can become and what they can achieve.
At 2:06 she is facing two doors.
Left door is Earth, right door is Mars.
She chose Mars.
You can see this symbolism with the colors in these two rooms... and the choice she made here is reflecting her destiny.
Yeah thats what I was thinking
yea, that scene was beautiful
Nice observation.
Yeah, we saw the video.
i didn't even think of that
Smiling like a stupid during the last minutes, shed a couple of tears in the end. Nailed it, guys.
Charly Mayaud yeah, me too...darn thing gets you right in the feels.
what the hell me too
distroller
Still gets me...and I've watched this film at least 30 times!
I wanna be like that old man one day. Just being awesome and helping out the neighbor kids.
Nerfin Merfitt let's hope nobody gets the wrong idea
What would the wrong idea be? The old guy was awesome and very helpful.
Nerfin Merfitt just that most people would think this guys is a creep with bad ideas for this kid
Not necessarily.
WTF is a euro-American?

Of ALL National Georgraphic documentaries, THIS needs to be available beyond the USA. Every kid, every teen, every young adult needs the inspiration to be there in 2033 or after to take part in this endeavour.
Every country with a FOX NG provider can watch "Mars" and the documentaries, it's pretty much worldwide not only in the USA.
Ive had the inspiration for years, I'm just so shit at school I'll never get the chance :/

2:06 She stands before two rooms. The colors of the rooms are blue and red, representing Earth and Mars respectively. Pretty neat!
They can also be Mass Effect 3 endings... Sigh* PTSD... T-T
I just has a tear jerking moment right there 30:30
The radio is a SONY ICF 5900W a short wave radio receiver. Good radio from late 1970s, weighted a ton.
Geoffrey Lee wait. if its just a receiver, how was she talking to NA1SS?
The prop department modified the case with a microphone jack and added the even older microphone.
Geoffrey Lee u guys are really old
"a ton" whut...
why would it not ?
Love the room colors and the subconscious choice to go with the Mars color over the Earth color. Neat.
Nolan Milnes I noticed that too! Pretty smart, right?
Chaitraj Yadav Very good film!
I really loved that part too.
What room colors?

Why you ask, Watson?
this brought me to tears. we live in revolutionary times. =)
Almost brought me to tears too mate! What a wonderful reason to cry. Here is to space and making it our home one day.
Yup, shedding a few tears over here :) Beautiful example of how it is worth putting effort into inspiring kids.

If my sister threw away my lunch like that I'd be pissed af
Also what is this? 1965? If someone took a picture of me using a radio like that it would instantly be my profile picture.
SAME. As soon as I saw that photo on the locker, I was thinking "Yo that's a pretty sick picture."

That was beautiful
Yeah the korean girl is beautiful. I wanna her to be my girfriend.

i cried :'( :)
also i think the woman aka november alpha bla bla was the daughter of the old man
Me too
His Daughter was the waitress in the diner. When he speaks for the first time, she walks over to him and says " here Dad, dont forget to take these."
he could have 2 daughters...
attecker very true, but sadly the story never confirms this.
So loved watching this. can't wait for the series.
Where I could watch it all (series

This was so friggin inspiring cannot wait to start my astrophysics course in my first year of uni!
Make sure to include electric engineering!
how did u know?
You will Soon too ;)
little bitches get inspired by these soft things. grow up and become a russian businessman, pay for 10 of these fucking rockets and have a vacation on mars
Im in My second year of Electrical engineering. Would be a dream come true to work with anything space related

best short film ever!!!!!!!!

I criedied, I loved every moment of it. This has inspired me to not kill myself and reminded me WHY and WHAT I want to be. Spread the love for the unknown, spread the love.
Hey Natgeo! Thank you for putting this and all of your other videos on RUclips for all of us to enjoy. This was a wonderful short, and Before the Flood was incredible too!
Plot twist: The astronaut with whom Hana speaks is herself from the future... :P
This isn't interstellar, that's MARS
Ever thought that the astronaut on the ISS could also be the old man's daughter?
He did mention that his daughter also had problems fitting in. :O
his daughter was the waitress at the diner. like she even called him dad.
HAHAHA! Viggo. Good one!
yeah, like the daughter talked to hannah from the diner, through the radio
Yes, but remember the astronaut saying that she misses her mother and of her sister at around 31.14 or 31.15. This would suggest that she does have a sister and that sister is probably the waitress.
Hilmi Nugroho lmao
This is a really well written. Wish they had the VOD service.
this was much better than i expected.
I stumbled across this Series because Vsace promoted it and if the show can get one of those goosebump-moments per episode I'll be sure to watch it!
Damn... I was crying at the end... waiting for more of this moments in the series ;)
From nature to space. National Geographic brings slice of life.
till this day natgeo still got the best cameras
this was great but KIDS, please don't ever go hiking by yourself like hannah did. 9 times out of 10 you'll be just fine, but if something goes wrong and people don't know where you are, you could end up in real danger. be safe. always tell people where you're going and when you expect to be back and again, please don't go alone.
The music was really perfect in this, It really captured the essence of Awe and exploration to me.
I love the way most of the men and boys are portrayed in this vid.
I didn't really see many.
Wait, what do you mean? Like David pointed out, there aren't that many (really aren't a lot of characters over all). There's the grumpy kid in school, there's the old wise guy and there's like a dude running a thrift store? How do you mean they're "portrayed"?
G8gleTookMyAccount
Really?
Who's the very first male you see in this vid? What is he shown doing? What's her reaction?
*EVERY* male shown in this vid right up to the introduction of the old man.
And, of course, at the end when our heroine achieves her goal- the astronaut talks about what's important to her; her family. *Who* in her family does she think about? Or, more tellingly, who *doesn't* she think about?
She didn't have a father figure, so why would she think about him?
David Bergara - Gonzalez Convenient that she didn't have a brother either, huh?
I really have no idea how I got here - BUT I LOVE IT! I got goosebumps just because it felt so real and so close to what I experience and want. I don't know if the actual series can keep this up, but the prequel was just perfectly fitting to what I desire, what I am.

Space Comms too bad they couldnt find a legal way in the story for her to talk to NA1SS, but it was very inspirational nonetheless.

Yeah, that would have been nice. I guess it's hard to do that in 30 minutes.
Nah, I think it's better this way. A little rebellious fun. It's what makes for a cute story.
If this short is an indication of how the rest of the series will be, it should be really good. Nice symbolism of the room colours. And the contact to the ISS - and using the right call sign too, pretty awesome. :)
This is literally the best thing ever!
This is what life is all about curiousness and a wild adventure to find a place called HOME. (I have tears in my eyes wonderful series).

I've done a lot of things such as painting the solar system, read books about space and anything that a kid could think of. and then time passed by. I started to perceive that is somewhat impossible and then I started to forget about it. But after watching this video, when the astronaut responded to Hana, I just got an tear in the eyes. I was so grateful for her. I think that if I become a dad in the future, I would support my son/daughter to pursue their dream in every ways.
I can totally relate to Hana, nice job NatGeo!
was this made for 90s kids? cause it seems so 90s lol
reading your comment makes me feel old
I think more likely it was made *by* 90s kids; which makes me sympathize with Zelda.
We are the ones that are beggining to have the power to change things, so it's the proper audience. Your generation will be sent to mars by us.
Link The Hero of Time I look a lot like Ganon some mornings if that helps.
vaids nosmi 90s were the shit
Right in the feels. Lets go to Mars!
I... I teared up at the end. Thank you Nat Geo for making this.
National Geographic increasingly better. Thank you for bringing these incredible videos!
Wow. That was eye opening. Inspiring. I relate to Hana, and this made me realize that I should be more grateful for my surroundings. Truly an incredible film. It was also really interesting to see Staci play Katie, she graduated from my current high school and she is an amazing actress. I definitely give this film a 10 out of 10 star rating👍
this was amazing. more pls.
Damn it, I cried. But it was a good cry. This put into perspective all of the time and potential I've wasted worrying about being different.
I love her already, I wish I had seen that as a teenager :)
First 30 seconds gave me chills
feels like heaven, fucking stunning
from 28:00 on was awesome
Thank you National Geographic for doing this!
Inspirational stuff. Encourage future generations to become scientist and engineers!
Wow, probably the coolest thing i've watched in years, pulled some heatstrings.
Feels like Interstellar.
Kevin Yeoh Matthew McConaughey is in the closet

my god my stupid dirty mind

This reminds me of the film Contact (1997), loved that movie and this is quite close to it just a bit more realistic. I'm just an artist and to me astronomy is so magical, at times it's beyond my comprehension that the way it can make you feel empowered and still make you feel so tiny and worthless in the bigger picture...
Wow I did NOT expect I'd tear up by the end of this.
that rocket aint goin nowhere without Matt Damon
Only 5k views. Please share it on social media. This deserves to be sean by many. I love it. Good work.
a feeling is even less than a fraction of a second. The feeling inspired by this video will not last even in my lifetime. I am lost in the sea of stimulus as usual, too afraid to see, too excited to hear, too sad to think. My perspective changes a bit more slowly than my emotions. I may not find what i wanted, but let this be my record.
deagleninja was it a good fart?
this should be shawn to every child who are the "weirds" at school and don't believe in themselves enough because of others. This is very inspiring !
This is actually a show about the dangerous trap that is vintage electronics, once you start you never go back.
I've fallen victim of this, so agreed on this PSA.
It will change your life forever..i'm one of them...
What a charming love letter to space exploration and the sense of wonder people get when they find their calling.
I want more stuff like this Nat Geo!
I don't know what is about this 'Man Of Steel' mood, that just make everything better.
I truly miss this show! Still hopeful for Season 3 to come soon!
It was cancelled a long time ago. I was hoping for one too, but close to zero chance that it's going to be picked up again.
I'm really liking what I'm seeing so far. Great stuff. I'm looking forward to seeing more. 😊
Absolutely beautiful and hopeful. I'm looking forward to it.
It's always true that the most wonderful people don't fit in because there are just some people that are above humanity. That push the bounds of what a human can become and what they can achieve.
This is so good . Thanks NG.
Becoming an astronaut is my dream so I really love it.
Well done National Geographic! This was so inspiring, thank you for adding a little bit of more fuel in my passion to work at NASA!
I wish there was more to this, i freaking loveeeeee this so much!!!!!!!!!!
Very well done. Moved me to tears. To exploration and future homes.
I am hooked just by this show. Thank you.
anyone else cried...? :'
Yup, got me gud :)
People doing/being inspired towards space stuff always does it for me. Nothing else, just space stuff.
Space fetishist.
