“Moonrush” author Dennis Wingo joins us from a converted McDonalds where he is converting old Lunar Reconnaissance to digital files for our latest live show. If you think that description sounds impressive, just wait until you see this show!

Dennis has very compelling arguments for us to not only go back to the moon but how we can colonize and monetize as well. We even cover how we can use the ISS as a building station to get to GEO to push to the moon to use as a launch pad for Mars. How’s THAT for awesome?

Of all the objects in the universe, none have been scutinized as much as the Moon. Sir William Herschel, the famous astronomer, in 1783 spotted something odd while studying the moon and its craters. His discovery was backed up by others observations, right up to 1937.

Incredible but true!
