𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗜𝗔𝗡 𝗖𝗛𝗥𝗢𝗡𝗜𝗖𝗟𝗘𝗦 is a 1980 television three-episode miniseries based on Ray Bradbury's 1950 book The Martian Chronicles and dealing with the exploration of Mars and the inhabitants there.

It was aired on NBC in January 1980 in three episodes with a total running time of just over four hours (nearly five hours on the DVD version).
