Infographic - Exploring the Red Planet

Here’s a little “behind the scenes” process of making this information graphic.
The goal was to show most, if not all, attempts to explore out Red neighbour. I wanted to show successful, partially successful and failed mission launches.

Using the almighty power of spreadsheets, i created a table with all the necessary preliminary information needed:
- type of mission (orbiting the planet, land on it, or just fly past)
- mission outcome (success, fail, etc)
- date of the mission
- country of Origin
