On May 7th and 8th, experts from government, industry, small business, and academia will come together in Washington, D.C., for the 2024 Humans to Mars Summit focused on sending humans to Mars.

The event, the largest such gathering on earth, is being organized by Chris Carberry, the CEO and Co-Founder of Explore Mars Inc.,  a nonprofit dedicated to fostering a permanent human presence on the Red Planet no later than 2033.

Once the province of science fiction, Chris says a Martian colony is inevitable, and there are ample opportunities right now for entrepreneurs and independent businesses to climb aboard.

Chris is the author of The Music of Space: Scoring the Cosmos in Film and Television and Alcohol in Space: Past, Present and Future. 

Before joining Explore Mars, he served as Executive Director of The Mars Society. 

The countdown to an out-of-this-world adventure has begun. Listen now for your ticket to ride. 

Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.
