...And To Mars Thereafter
Before the end of the next decade, NASA says astronauts
will again explore the surface of the moon. And this time, the
space agency promises, we're going to stay, building outposts and
paving the way for eventual journeys to Mars and beyond. There are
echoes of the iconic images of the past, but it won't be your
grandfather's moon shot. Administrator Michael Griffin says the new
Moon missions will be like the Apollo program... on steroids.
