Stranded on Mars

An astronaut finds themself marooned on the desolate surface of Mars after a violent dust storm damages their return vehicle. With only limited supplies and the vast, red expanse stretching endlessly in every direction, survival becomes a daily battle against isolation and the unforgiving environment. As hope dwindles, they cling to the possibility of rescue and the guidance provided by mission control back on Earth through NASA, whose research and exploration continue to push the boundaries of what it means to endure among the stars.
