Mars4 subdivided the land plot on Mars into 99,888 pieces and released it as an NFT. The area of ​​each plot is 1,488 square kilometers. In which, 888 pieces of land with special geographical locations on the red planet will be auctioned at OpenSea and Rarible exchanges. Currently, more than 29,426 Mars plots of this project have owners.

According to the roadmap, this project will develop a VR (virtual reality) platform and games, allowing users to participate in activities on Mars. At the same time, with each NFT land, the owner will experience 3D space on the red planet.

Similar to NFT, metaverse is trending in the blockchain field. This model helps users to explore virtual space in the most realistic way.

The term Metaverse first appeared in 1992, in the science fiction novel Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson. The writer describes this as a virtual world, where people use their avatars to interact with each other and with software in 3D space.

From 2019, writers at DC Comics began using the term Metaverse to refer to a central form of reality that affects different universes and timelines.
