Being On Mars Unexpected Miracles

Aboard the Mars bound cruiser, the E.R. Burroughs, Shalom Mendelssohn, a Chabad rabbi, finds himself in an unexpected relationship with Sarah Rafaeli - a brilliant CEO tasked with easing the psychological breakdown known as Mars Syndrome. She brings with her psychoactive plant medicines and a connection to the spiritual sciences. Then there's Evelin de Leon, a vibrant Guatemalan girl who invites Yudi Zalman, a shy computer geek, to her quinceañera. But when Yudi wins a scholarship to Mars, what becomes of their emerging love? The plot makes a dynamic move when Circe del Piano, Sarah's long time friend and curandera is mysteriously brought aboard the Mars Cruiser by the CEO of the Mars Corporation. Every protagonist faces a deeply personal test of identity, purpose, and connection. Being on Mars tells love stories in all forms-binary, non-binary, timeless, and true; where a kendo master sings icaros with her lover, a quantum computer becomes an ally, and goddesses unite to bring back lost love. This isn't a story about reaching Mars. It's about what follows you there- and what love makes possible when everything else falls away.
