'Approaching the Unknown' volgt een astronaut, William D. Stanaforth genaamd, met de eenmansmissie om de eerste stappen te maken met betrekking tot de kolonisatie van de planeet Mars. Terwijl de wereld toekijkt en hij helemaal alleen is, eist de reis zijn tol.
Nee, helaas is Approaching the Unknown nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
