The Moon is a destination, a laboratory for science, a place to learn the skills of planetary exploration, and a source of materials and energy for use on the Moon and in space to create new spacefaring capability.
Advocate of a human return on the Moon, Paul D. Spudis, Senior Staff Scientist at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston (Texas, USA), will bring us in a journey to rediscover what is the value of lunar exploration, a topic on which he has spent more than 40 years of study, thought and publications.
The lecture has been held at the Erasmus Innovation Centre in the ESTEC site in The Netherlands in December 11.
