== Description ==<br />
This epic 25-minute concert work for percussion orchestra expresses the consecutive stages to reach the planet Mars and eventually form a colony as an outer earth, an Extra Terra. A company like SpaceX is leading the way right now to realize this vision of nearby future. Visionaries like Elon Musk believe that we are depleting our planet so much that we will eventually have to make a choice to leave our planet and colonize Mars. The various stages of development will appear during the composition: from the first satellite that passed Mars in 1965 to the actual manned mission, expected sometime in the coming decades. The eventual foundation of a community as a vision for the future concludes this compelling piece commissioned by HMC Helmond for their successful 2022 WMC participation. It is divided into three large parts and preceded by a Prologue and Intrada. The three main parts are called 'phases' in science. Various subsections of these phases describe the specific events on our way to the red planet.<br />
