ザスピリットオブワンダー : 少年科學倶楽部
In 1954, the Scientific Boys Club, now a group of middle-aged men, embarks on an extraordinary project. They decide to build a ship capable of sailing to Mars on the 'Ethereal Current,' a theoretical energy flow permeating the universe, based on the thesis of a club member's wife.
Their goal is to prove an old theory about channels on Mars being built by Martians, seeking evidence of extraterrestrial life. The journey represents the culmination of their lifelong scientific curiosity and camaraderie, pushing the boundaries of known physics.
Years later, when both the Ethereal Current theory and the Martian channel hypothesis are dismissed as nonsense, a future Mars expedition makes a startling discovery that challenges the official historical record.
