-Descripcion Original:

Can astronauts reach Mars by 2035? Absolutely, says Buzz Aldrin, one of the first men to walk on the moon. Celebrated astronaut, brilliant engineer, bestselling author, Aldrin believes it is not only possibly but vital to Americas future to keep pushing the space frontier outward for the sake of exploration, science, development, commerce, and security. What we need, he argues, is a commitment by the U.S. President as rousing as JFKs promise to reach the moon by the end of the 1960s-an audacious, inspiring goal-and a unified vision for space exploration. In Mission to Mars, Aldrin plots that trajectory, stressing that American-led space exploration is essential to the economic and technological vitality of the nation and the world. Do you dare to dream big? Then join Aldrin in his thought provoking and inspiring Mission to Mars. Review Colonizing space is essential for the long term survival of the human race, and Buzz Aldrins book shows us how. -Stephen Hawking Buzz Aldrin has been as far from Earth as any human being, and now hes leading the charge to go much farther, to our next epic destination: Mars. -James Cameron “Any time an Apollo-era astronaut steps forward with ideas for our future in space, it’s time to stop what whatever we’re doing and pay attention. Buzz Aldrin, one of the first moonwalkers, has no shortage of these ideas. And in Mission to Mars he treats us to how, when, and why we should travel there.” -Neil deGrasse Tyson “Buzz is one of the foremost forward thinkers of our time and this book will be essential reading for those who care about humanity’s future in space.” -Richard Branson “Although the lunar landing is decades behind him, Dr. Aldrin is just plain passionate about humankind’s exploration of space. An extraordinary pilot, scuba diver, moonwalker, and the first man to board a spacecraft on its way back to Earth, he advises us to keep going- farther and deeper into space. Page by page, this book makes you want to slide into your space suit and light your engines.” -Bill Nye, The Science Guy® “A masterful array of strategies for exploration by a true space expert and patriot.” - Michael Collins, astronaut and command module pilot, Apollo 11 Aldrin calls for systematic investment to establish a cycle of transportation and sustained, permanent settlements on the Red Planet. --NPR Talk of the Nation “Mission to Mars is pure Buzz: creative ideas flying off the pages, a big picture view of how to move forward, and a laser-like focus on why space exploration is key to humanitys future. Buzz Aldrin has been making major contributions to the U.S. space program for a half century, and his new book continues that tradition.” - John M. Logsdon, founder of the Space Policy Institute and professor emeritus, The George Washington University “I’ve traveled to the North Pole with Buzz, and if I were to travel to Mars I can’t think of a better person to plan the trip than he. Sign me up!” -N orm Augustine, Chairman, U.S. Human Spaceflight Review Committee “Buzz Aldrin’s Mission to Mars presents a bold, inviting plan to colonize Mars. His call that the ‘Earth isn’t the only world for us anymore’ is incontrovertible .” - Roger D. Launius, Senior Curator, Division of Space History, National Air and Space Museum “No ones given more thought to Mars exploration than Buzz Aldrin- a hero whose legacy as one of the first men on the moon may well be eclipsed by his contributions to engineering our future in space. - Elliot Holokauahi Pulham, CEO, The Space Foundation Mission to Mars is a white paper for getting us back on track, complete with math, science, and diagrams-though Aldrin and his coauthor put it all together with clear and quick-moving prose. --The Weekly Standard “There are places to go beyond belief, and this book is the call to get there.” - Chris Lewicki, President & Chief Asteroid Miner, Planetary Resources Aldrin’s han
