I was recently quoted in Newsweek, and I’m excited to share my thoughts with all of you on the future of space exploration. The article dives into the fascinating discussion around whether or not Mars colonization is truly within our reach, and it’s an honor to be part of such an important conversation. 

Newsweek brings together the views of some of the biggest voices in space exploration, including those of Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump, both of whom have had bold visions of Mars. The article delves into their ideas about the possibility of colonization, but it also highlights the critical questions we need to answer before embarking on such a monumental journey.

While some of the big picture goals are incredibly ambitious, my quote in the article serves as a reminder that space exploration isn’t just about getting to Mars. It’s about understanding the reality of living there and tackling the complex challenges that come with that ambition. We’re on the brink of something truly extraordinary, but the road ahead requires innovation, careful planning, and a whole lot of perseverance.

I hope the conversation continues, and I’m grateful to Newsweek for including my thoughts on such an important subject. As we look ahead to the future of space exploration, I’m more excited than ever to see where it takes us—and how we’ll make the impossible possible.
