Don't forget the alien planet surface sound from the original Star Trek
televison series from the 1960's. That organ mixed with flute music can't
be beat.

a human visitor? Would things sound "unearthly"?

First your space suit audio microphone system would have to be
turned on and operative. Then of course any Mars sounds heard would be
unearthly because it's not Mother Earth. What you might hear is
something like the tune from the TV program " The Outer Limits ". Or
Nasa might be kind enough, per channel selection, to pipe in current hit
music tunes to your space suit ear phones to drown out those erry new
human explored planet high pitched noises. But once you find all those
pink diamonds that Bert says are up there, you'll forget the erry
sporadic wind and dust noises, and start picking up as many precious
stones as you can dig up.
Darla, our fantastic beautiful and smart dual space alien has indicated
that we stand the best chance by heading for the Mars caves where
presumably they would provide protection against the harsh Mars
elements. Also theoretically, by heating of some of the Mars rocks they
may provide released oxygen for human built semi blocked cave opening
internal breathing habitat. Bet you can't wait to hang your Best Buy or
Target store Earth bought plasma 50 inch TV on the Mars cave wall.
Watching and hearing the Sunday night football game away from home would
be a treat all right. Just ask Darla's crew! (:~)
