Mars has been a popular subject of fiction for over 100 years. Fascination with the planet's color, speculation about the possibilty of intelligent life there, and terraforming theories contribute to Mars' hold over the popular imagination.

Mars began to appear in short stories by such writers as H.G. Wells ad Percy Greg in the late 1800s.

With the Mariner mission in the 1960s, ideas of habitability and intelligent life had to be abandoned.
