It is a year not too far from this one! ...Two Russians are about to make man's ageless dream of interplanetary travel a reality!
Synopsis:
Two cosmonauts, one self-serving and cynical and one idealistic and patriotic, blast off on the first manned flight to Mars, using a revolutionary Russian-developed propulsion system. The two come to blows when the former resolves to defect and turns the craft toward a landing in United States territory, hoping to reap a rich reward for the great engineering and technological prize he will deliver to the US government.
