Hugely cool news for S.F. fans: AMC (having already proved its chops with Mad Men) is planning a series based on the Kim Stanley Robinson novel Red Mars. There are a few more details at io9 and the Hollywood Reporter.
I've talked a little bit about KSR's Mars novels before, but suffice it to say I think they're just fantastic, and they've changed my thinking about politics, Utopia, and ecology in some pretty important ways. Let's hope AMC can catch lightning in a bottle twice.
