For the second year in a row, NASA participated in Comic-Con International in San Diego.
NASA experts took part in two panel discussions during the conference on Thursday, July 9.
NASA’s participation continues the agency’s efforts to engage and inspire the next generation of American innovators and explorers in our #JourneyToMars.

You can go to Mars through Google Maps now. I actually traced the whole route from the story on there. The Schiaparelli crater is not too hard to find. 🙂
Sapere un futro é mandare ugualmente le persone nei luoghi é suicidio del’umanità
Growing up as a kid in the 50’s it was a really big deal getting to space in the early 60’s considering most airliners flying overhead were prop jobs and jets were still relatively new. Then we went to the Moon and I was reading about the NERVA nuclear engines and we could go to Mars next back then. Then it all went away. Where’s our Moon base? Over 40 years and we haven’t been back yet! Space 1999? It never happened. Someone call Commander Koenig! Mars? If we had set up shop on the Moon, we’d already know what it takes to stay on Mars. Doubt I’ll see it now in my lifetime. Wish I could have.
did anyone else cry while watching the trailer
“Thousands of people in 46 states around the country assembling this rocket.” the epitome of inefficiency. Thats the exact reason why NASA has made minimal progress in 40 years. Government controlled space endeavors will never be able to achieve what a private company can.
Team America 2. Matt and Trey, you’re up.…
I learned a lot. Good video.
Great book, great panel, and I was impressed by the intelligent questions asked from the audience. I am almost sixty years old and as a child was glued to the TV during the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions, including of course the moon landing. I am grateful that our nation and the world are again taking an interest in exploring beyond earth.
Inspirational stuff. Have watched a few interviews with Andy Weir since the movie has just released in New Zealand — and this panel interview really brings it home. Still remember that day when we landed on the moon, listening to it on the school radio!! Now it would be on a 50 inch ++ TV screen with all the bells and whistles!!
I wish nasa let space x make the space ship. Falcon XX Heavy will be the biggest and the most powerfull vehicle ever made. in 1 hour im going to the cinema, cant wait
They know more them meet the eye, Nasa is lieng
Why don’t you use thorium?
like like like ‚hope 2nd martian movie mars mission is coming soon
i love the martian its y favorite movie!
And yet not a single botanist there to call out Andy on the fact he was about one or two orders of magnitude short on light for the potatoes in the book. Not only he’d need at least 3m^2 of solar panels per m^2 of soil, he’d need an obscene amount of spotlights to provide all the needed sunlight, and a heat-sinking capacity which pretty much exceeds anything the Hab could provide.
Long calculations made short, he’d need about 500W worth of lighting fixtures per square meter.
And now I get where Mark Watney takes his humor from. Gosh I laughed when Andy was talking
29:45 The ISS an American National Laboratory?! LOL Well bro, I don’t think so.
FYI: The “I” stands for International.
Parts for the SLS (Senate Launch System…) made in 46 states… that´s the problem right there, it´s a jobs-program… A rocket designed by Congress to keep shuttle-contractors employed. Reminds me of the unkillable, budget-busting Pentagon projects like the F22 and JSF, jobs in nearly every state so that no one in Congress ever says stop.
Btw: The movie is really good and so is the book 🙂
I loved the movie and the novel. These people are so passionate about their work and the future! Wonderful! I know nothing about rocket science but this is very interesting, makes me want to learn more about it!
NASA should’ve been participating in Comic-Con from the birth of it.
