From Mars to Sirius is the third album by the French metal band, Gojira. It is a concept album, focusing on the changing environment of the Earth, and how humanity must do something to save the Earth before it is too late. A video directed by Alan Duplantier was filmed for the song "To Sirius".
This album follows a character who sees the world end and sets out on a journey to find the Flying Whales so they can teach the character to fly. Said character flies to Sirius C, where the 'Master Race' teaches him to restore life to the planet (possibly Earth or Mars).
The usage of interplanetary endeavoring in Sirius bears similarities to Voltaire's Micromégas, which tells the story of a man traveling through space originally from the planet Sirus.
It also bears similarities to ideas put forward in Bob Frissell's book "Nothing in This Book is True, But it's Exactly How Things Are".
