Abstract
The practice of modem engineering has generated many interesting theoretical problems, which now apply to a vast range of systems. The title of this paper has dual meaning: the engineering path leading from voiceband modems to communications in distributed sensor networks for Martian exploration, and preliminary plans for the establishment of an interplanetary Internet.
