The President’s Commission on Moon, Mars, and Beyond (aka the Aldridge Commission) has issued a press release and schedule for its next public meeting, scheduled for Wednesday afternoon through Thursday in Atlanta. Wednesday afternoon’s session will be devoted to entrepreneurs, public-private partnerships, and some speakers from the host school, Georgia Tech. Thursday’s session will feature workforce issues, safety issues associated with human missions to Mars, commercial space, and the media, with Buzz Aldrin scheduled to testify as well. As with previous hearings, the event will be broadcast/webcast on NASA TV.
I will be there and since I _think_ there is wireless access in that room, I will be blogging the event live via the #arocket IRC chat room. See rocketforge.org for details as soon as I get them….
