To the Moon and Mars within our lifetimes.

It seems that we might be returning to the Moon and travel to Mars within our lifetimes.
That is amazing. Check the following links for more info:

While orbiting the Moon in a deep space outpost may be exciting it makes sense to have a base at the surface too – check the cave for potential inhabitants:

The small space station orbiting the moon may seem small and the Bigelow inflatable modules can help improve that:

Before we land on Mars we need some postcard perfect pictures:

I remember watching the moon landing when as a ten year old standing in my grandparents bedroom in a village in Bulgaria at the border with Serbia and Romania (that’s where the small black and white TV was perched on a small table) behind the back of all our neighbours. Someone (maybe my grandfather) lifted me up and stood me on a chair. I can’t describe it. You have to experience it.
