Re: Now Is The Time For A Mars Direct Lobbying Effort - Time to go!! Right now!!

Now that President Bush has committed the U.S. to sending a manned mission to Mars, now is the time for we Manned Mars Mission advocates to step up and push for the Mars Direct Program.

Mars Direct can be used for long duration lunar missions as well.  Thus fullfilling another of the Presidents goals.

Its time for everyone to buy a copy of Zubrins "Case For Mars" book and send a copy to the President, Vice President, key Congressmen, and Senators, members of the media, et al.

The paperback version will do.

I'm sending my first copy to either the President or his wife.

I can certainly think of no better way to make Zubrin a rich man.

Just write a letter folks. Ask your parents, or at least one friend to write one as well. Make sure to include that Zubrin should be part of a NASA space commission that will oversee the development of Bush's space policy goals.
