HYBRID APPROACH MARS MISSION (HAMM) PRESENTED BY BILL HARGENRADER AND RON SPARKMAN OF MARS NOW 22SEP2016 US BILL HARGENRADER RON SPARKMAN YOU! OVERVIEW • Missions • Organizations • Requirements • Hybrid Mission Scenarios • Q&A / Discussion INTRO During the 2015 Mars Society Convention, one of the highlights was the debate between Dr. Robert Zubrin, Founder and President of the Mars Society, Casey Dreier, Director of Advocacy, the Planetary Society, and Dr. Harrison Schmitt, Former Astronaut, Apollo 17, over what path to take to Mars, a stepwise or direct approach. INTRO There is a fierce ongoing debate about whether it is better for humans to travel to Mars directly and land on its surface, or take a step by step approach which includes orbiting the red planet first. INTRO This presentation posits that we don’t have to choose. INTRO And by not choosing… By embracing HAMM, we can reach our goals faster.
