Human Exploration Beyond the Space Station: How the World is Joining In

With the U.S. and NASA as leaders in human space exploration, much of the rest of the world is starting to make plans to join in as we look to the Moon and Mars.
The Global Exploration Roadmap reaffirms the interest of 14 space agencies to expand human presence into the Solar System, with the surface of Mars as a common driving goal. It reflects a coordinated international effort to prepare for space exploration missions beginning with the International Space Station (ISS) and continuing to the lunar vicinity, the lunar surface, then on to Mars. The expanded group of agencies demonstrates the growing interest in space exploration and the importance of cooperation to realize individual and common goals and objectives.
Please join our Hangout, when our regular moderator, Tony Darnell, will discuss how plans are being developed for international programs in human space flight with Kathy Laurini and Ryan Whitley, both of NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
