But a group of humans-called volunteers even though they were taken from prison gulags-have been surgically altered to survive the environment.</p><p>They are exiles never again able to breathe Earth's air.</p><p>But for all their work as they make Mars a place where normal humans can live these altered humans are no longer suited for their own home.</p><p>They are obsolete people.</p><p>They sacrificed their humanity to become the first Martians. And they will not stand by as humans come to take their home.</p>
