Description:... Beginning with his reporting from India in October of 2008 (as the principal investigator of NASA's Mini-SAR, watching his radar being launched to the moon aboard Chandrayaan-1). Paul's easy to read essays have followed and reported on the growing upheaval in the space community and the battle being waged for the ideological control of the funding for space exploration, and the resulting chaos. In keeping with his call for a strong U.S. human space program, Paul Spudis outlines and explains the importance of creating a sustainable space program through the use of the Moon's resources to create new capabilities to live and work in space and move humanity off planet. These essays and reader comments are compiled in Blogging the Moon
