Ares V

Ares V was humanity's fifth manned mission to Mars.

Under the direction of the International Space Agency and NASA, it was supposed to be the second part of a multi-stage plan to establish the first permanent Martian colony. Instead, in 2032, Ares V became a rescue mission to recover Ares IV mission specialists, Rose Kumagawa and Andrei Novakovich, from the planet's surface after their orbiting command module was lost.
