The Calm Café

The Mars Exploration Vehicle (MEV) sets off on it's latest journey across the red planet. This time, due to some upgrades, we're able to get out and explore these surroundings in this new world. Join us as we begin our EVA tours.

Join us as we return to our short story:To translate writings, you need a key to the code—and if the last writer of Martian died forty thousand years before the first writer of Earth was born ... how could the Martian be translated...? An expedition from Earth to Mars discovers a deserted city, the remains of an advanced civilization that died out 50,000 years before. The human scientists recover books and documents left behind, and are puzzled by their contents. Will they be able to translate them . . . is it even possible?

We continue with our reading of the HG Wells classic. Join us as The Time Traveler begins his tales of his adventure and starts to paint a picture of a familiar and yet completely alien world.

Zakynthos, an Ionian gem nestled in the azure embrace of the Ionian Sea, whispers tales of a storied past. Legend has it that the island's name echoes the son of the Arcadian chief Dardanus, Zakynthos. It's a place where myth and history intertwine.

As you step out of the Mars Exploration Vehicle (MEV), take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey you've just completed. The Red Planet is now beneath your feet, and the adventure that awaits is nothing short of extraordinary.

We're treated to part 1 of the classic tale by Alexandre Dumas.
