On our science segment this week, I unpack all the details from NASA's announcement to go back to the Moon to stay, and eventually go to Mars. Starting in 2020, the Orion Spacecraft will begin test launches on the SLS rocket. Also, NASA and private and commercial companies will be working on the Gateway spacecraft which will act as an orbiting hub around the Moon to ferry astronauts to the lunar surface. Along with new science experiments and robotic rovers being deployed to the Moon, everything will be used as a field test to inevitably send a human presence to Mars by 2030. This is all exciting and groundbreaking for humanity, but we need to think about revising the laws that govern space as well. Dr. Michio Kaku chimes in on this idea from a clip from episode 63 of Fueled By Death Cast.
