Mars Society
From NewMarsWiki
Intro
A space advocacy organization created as a response to the large enthusiasm created by Robert Zubrin’s book, The Case For Mars.
Purpose
The Purpose of the Mars Society To further the goal of the exploration and settlement of the Red Planet. This will be done by: 1. Broad public outreach to instill the vision of pioneering Mars. 2. Support of ever more aggressive government funded Mars exploration programs around the world. 3. Conducting Mars exploration on a private basis. Starting small, with hitchhiker payloads on government funded missions, we intend to use the credibility that such activity will engender to mobilize larger resources that will enable stand-alone private robotic missions and ultimately human exploration. Founding Declaration We invite you to read and sign the Founding Declaration of the Mars Society.
