I've just read that Ray Bradbury died last month. While he was one of the great Science Fiction writers, he was not well known in recent years. 'Farenheit 451' is one of his better known works.
My favorite were his 'Martian Chronicles' .

I have not read them yet, but I have the three movies they made off them, which are sometimes a bit strange, but tell a deep story. It's about humanity colonizing Mars.
'The Expeditions' tell the tale of the first manned missions to Mars and what happens to the Martians.
''The Settlers' shows how the settlers try to set up a new life on Mars with their dreams and expectations. It also shows how we would treat an new planet.
'The Martians' tells us what happens after... I don't want to spoil this.

There is also a simple truth mentione in the third movie (but watch the others first), the Martian Way of Life:
"Secret …. There is no secret. Anyone with eyes can see the way to live …. By watching life, observing nature, and cooperating with it. Making common cause with the process of existence …. By living life for itself, don't you see? Deriving pleasure from the gift of pure being .… Life is its own answer. Accept it and enjoy it day by day. Live as well as possible. Expect no more. Destroy nothing, humble nothing, look for fault in nothing. Leave unsullied and untouched all that is beautiful. Hold that which lives in all reverence. For life is given by the sovereign of our universe; given to be savored, to be luxuriated in, to be respected. But that's no secret. You're intelligent. You know as well as I what has to be done."
