Mars is at the center of a global conversation about space exploration. Everyone seems to have a theory on the best way to get humans beyond low-Earth orbit to live and work on the Red Planet. They're seeing the invention of new options, a retreading of old ideas, and sometimes a combination of both. Thinking big is a good thing, and then they must get to work on a plan that's practical and possible. Apollo-era visionaries did the same thing and then executed a plan within the parameters of what was possible given current technologies and enduring laws of physics. Here, Elbon discusses one of six funded by NASA to develop prototype equipment for the journey to Mars.
