"Marsbook" is a 1993 interactive CD-ROM commissioned by NASA and developed by Human Code, to show politicians their projections for the colonization of Mars. Based on SuperCard,[1] it models NASA's proposed Mars habitat. The CD uses prerendered 3D graphics to allow users to virtually walk through a computer model of the habitat.[2]

"Marsbook" won two New Media Invision Awards, as well as an award from Business Week.[3] System requirements to run the simulation are a colour Macintosh II or greater, 8 megabytes of RAM, QuickTime, System 7.x, and a CD-ROM player.
