President Bush recently announced a new vision for the country and NASA for the future of space exploration. What is it all about? Where are we going and when? Why are we going back to the moon? When are we going to Mars? What ‘alien’ object will be flying into Utah in September?

We have all seen the spectacular images from the Mars rovers Spirit and Opportunity. What else is going on? How can you help?

You will have a chance to hear about these and other fascinating topics from Walt Faulconer, Director of Space Exploration Business Development at Lockheed Martin. Walt has been with Lockheed Martin for 25 years working everything from the Space Shuttle, astronaut training, X-33 reusable launch vehicle, and other advanced space programs. He will also be showing a video recently completed on the Orbital Space Plane program for NASA, narrated by Star Trek’s Patrick Stewart.

Mr. Faulconer's presentation will take place on Sunday, April 18, 2004 at Starfest 2004.
