A documentation of an intricate, homemade and rather silly Mars mission simulation becomes desperately funny thanks to the project's perverse details such as: Irish whiskey and Adderol consumption throughout, breakout Eames-style modules that explain plywood, epoxy and the circular saw, the use of an Atari game to simulate the landing (this is less arch and more exciting than it sounds), the use of several perfect music choices (Tangerine Dream's Rubycon and James Brown's Get Up, Get Into It, Get Involved are employed to great effect) and the inclusion of surreal details like a Japanese tea ceremony on board the lander and a romantic candlelight dinner aboard ship for the two (female astronauts). It's a hysterically funny inventive thing and I loved every second of it.
