As the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) plans to launch Mars 2020, a Mars rover mission on July 17, Indian poet-diplomat Abhay K has teamed up with Kenyan artiste Kapnea in a song dubbed Mars Anthem.

Abhay told Spice that the song intends to inspire the younger generation to pay attention to the wonders waiting to be explored on the red planet and nudge them to take to spacefaring. Mishree Yadav from Nepal directed the music video.
