PANEL:  It's Still Not a Lunar Space Race
Channel: Secure World Foundation
Date: 2023-06-16

It’s hard to talk about future lunar space activities without making comparisons to the original “Space Race”, and in some cases it’s a deliberate strategy to recreate the  tension, excitement, and budgets of the 1960s Cold War. This panel will discuss the reality of current lunar plans (and what’s actually feasible), which is often more complex, nuanced, and uncertain.

Kaitlyn Johnson — CSIS
