Human Space Exploration

Abstract

The presentation will address the challenges associated with human space exploration and discuss the assets needed to accomplish the Human Mars Mission, the risks, mitigation strategies and the technologies needed to accomplish this mission.  I will also highlight the essential use of the fundamental principles and technologies developed in the field of Chemistry and Physics.  The success of each mission is a culmination of an integrated effort from a vast number of disciplines. The current interest from the Public and Private entities of the world will take us to a new era in Space Exploration.
