Stories from the edge of possibility—from the people preparing to call Mars home.

Saeed Ghandari, Iran & New Zealand
From Iranian parliament to New Zealand’s Ministry of Social Development—and maybe one day, Mars—Dr. Saeed Ghandhari is a man on a mission. In this episode, we talk about resilience, lifelong learning, and what it means to pack your Mars bag just in case. With a black belt, a PhD, and a dream that refuses to die, Saeed is proof that helping others can be just as powerful as launching rockets.
140 million miles away never felt closer.
