Escape the Ordinary: Let's Colonize the Moon. A discussion led by Solar System Ambassador Eric Vandernoot

How did our view of the moon change? On the 46th anniversary of when we first walked on the moon on July 20, 1969 our discussion of moon colonization continues.
Eric Vandernoot, Solar System Ambassador, will lead us in a discussion.
"But Why, Some Say, the Moon" attempts to get people to reconsider the Moon as the most important resource we have to not only possibly providing a better energy resource to the Earth, but is even more important as a stepping stone to one day colonizing the entire solar system. It is something to seriously reconsider now that one of the "Mars One" finalists has come out saying that their one way trip to Mars, that they had bought into, turns out to be a complete scam.
 

Eric Vandernoot is the Astronomy & Physics Lab Coordinator at Florida Atlantic University.
