Here is my latest my round-up from the world of science. As always I attach no measure of relative importance to what I include. They are simply items that have caught my eye as they flow through my social media stream. This time it’s a little more space based, perhaps because I’m a science fiction author and I’ve been revising a book based way out there in the future.
The journey to Mars – its not all about Mars
William Gurstenmaier (NASA’s associate administrator for human exploration and operations) has been talking about NASAs ambitions for a Mars mission. What was interesting for me is that for me it’s the first time I’ve read an article that isn’t solely focused on Mars. A Mars mission is just part of broader mission for the human exploration of the solar system. They will use robots to build the base and they see robots and humans working together to conquer all the issues that humans will face in that wider exploration.
