KSR.info hopes to be a community-run website. Contributions to the content and to the structure of the website itself are wanted and encouraged!

Some ways in which you can contribute:

· Register/Sign in MangalaWiki and help build a comprehensive encyclopedia on the works of KSR

· Help build a comprehensive interview list

· If you come across an article of interest concerning KSR, such as a noteworthy review or KSR-inspired art, do post it

· The same goes for articles of interest concerning related themes and issues : the environment, politics, science, history... the list is nearly infinite

· KSR.info will host or link to content that is not exclusively focused on KSR. Sustainable living initiatives, social themes in science fiction, suggested writers and thinkers, if you've read KSR you know that nearly anything can be relevant.

Finally, you can also contribute with suggestions pertaining to the structure of the site. Should we add a gallery of inspired-by art? A workshop on topical international issues? A newsletter? Be creative!

KSR.info currently does not have a forum (it may have in the future).
Please use this post as a thread for suggestions in the comments below.

I suggest setting up a shared set of markers for Google Mars that depict the sites from the Mars trilogy.

Not sure if you're familiar with NASA's World Wind; it's similar to Google Earth. One of the users created an add-on that shows many of the features discussed in the Trilogy:

Sun Symbiosis – by Forrest Sol

The following review of my unpublished first novel was written by the best-selling science fiction author Piers Anthony. It can be found in the June, 2010 newsletter on his website:

www.hipiers.com

“I read Sun Symbiosis, by Forrest Sol, a pen name for a PhD in environmental science. This is presented as a novel, but is actually a book-length essay phrased as an extended interview. I had to tell the author that it really didn't work for me as a novel, because there is no human interaction other than between the interviewer and his subject, both male. A novel does better with a rich background of science or fantasy and a telling human story, preferably a romantic one, and perhaps a moral theme. An example is the movie Avatar. I'm not sure whether that was a novel first, but if so, it was surely a good one.

Hi, I am a big fan of your Mars trilogy. I have also read many of your earlier books. I paint and wondered if I could contribute to your books or webpage with my paintings.
I and a few other artists have a webpage called artistandalucia. If you put this in a search engine it will bring us up. I would especially like to paint schenes from the Mars trilogy.
Yours, Alan Pearson.

This article in the BBC news entitled "Applicants wanted for a one way ticket to Mars" reads almost like the first chapter of Red Mars.
