Join us at the next National Space Society (NSS) Space Forum for an exclusive opportunity to dive into a bold, new vision for humanity on Mars. Hear from Dr. Robert Zubrin, one of the most influential voices in space settlement, as he presents insights from his new book, The New World on Mars: What We Can Create on the Red Planet. Dr. Zubrin, who revolutionized our thinking about Mars with his classic The Case for Mars, is back with a detailed and actionable plan for establishing a sustainable human presence on the Red Planet.

In this forum, Dr. Zubrin will lay out the technological breakthroughs, economic strategies, and political commitments required to turn the dream of Mars settlement into reality. Dr. Zubrin provides a compelling case for why Mars should be humanity’s next great adventure. From the first steps of reaching Mars to harnessing its resources and building thriving cities, he will explore the full scope of what it takes to create a new world. You’ll also learn about the incredible scientific discoveries and cultural innovations that could emerge from a Mars settlement—ushering in a new era of human civilization.

Dr. Zubrin, in making the case, will draw on his deep expertise and passion for space exploration as he offers this positive view for the long-term survival of humanity; suggesting a new frontier that could inspire innovation, drive economic growth, and safeguard the human race from potential global catastrophes.

Don’t miss this exciting and informative space forum that offers an inspiring and thought-provoking vision of expanding our human boundaries and settling Mars. Register for the space forum using the links in this message.

 
     
   
     
     
  As a special bonus, the NSS has secured four copies of The New World on Mars. These books will be signed by Dr. Zubrin and will be given away as virtual door prizes.
