Space Initiative Hearings Underway
If you’re interested in watching space history in the making, check out a live video stream of public hearings by the President’s Commission on Moon, Mars, and Beyond. The commission will be providing the President and NASA with recommendations about the new initiative to return to the Moon and eventually send humans to Mars. The hearings are happening over the course of Wednesday and Thursday from Georgia Tech, but you can watch a video feed through the Internet. Click here to visit the commission website, which has a link to the video feed. The committee is still taking suggestions from the public, so if you’ve got an opinion or suggestion, pass it along.
