Project Moonwalk is an exciting multiplayer, on-line game and simulation that allows us to walk in the footsteps of the Apollo Missions and beyond.
Using the latest 3D technologies and user-oriented design, Project Moonwalk is a "Serious Game." Educators and Businesses interested in licensing Project Moonwalk may email us.
Mankind's foray into space is truly compelling, and visiting our closest neighbour is a great place to start.
"The Vision for Space Exploration is the United States space policy announced on January 14, 2004 by U.S. President George W. Bush. It is seen as a response to the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster, the state of human spaceflight at NASA, and a way to regain public enthusiasm for space exploration.
The Vision calls for the space program to:
Complete the International Space Station by 2010
Retire the Space Shuttle by 2010
Develop the Orion spacecraft (formerly known as the Crew Exploration Vehicle) by 2008, and conduct its first human spaceflight mission by 2014
Develop Shuttle Derived Launch Vehicles
Explore the Moon with robotic spacecraft missions by 2008 and crewed missions by 2020
Explore Mars and other destinations with robotic and crewed missions
When the Vision was announced in January 2004, the U.S. Congress and the scientific community gave it a mix of positive and negative reviews. For example, Rep. Dave Weldon (R-Fla.) said, "I think this is the best thing that has happened to the space program in decades," while physicist and outspoken manned spaceflight opponent Robert L. Park said that robotic spacecraft "are doing so well it's going to be hard to justify sending a human."
Others, such as the Mars Society have argued that it makes more sense to avoid going back to the Moon and instead focus on going to Mars first.
Touted as an all-purpose vehicle destined for the moon post 2020, the NASA designed 'Chariot' is a workhorse for those tricky modules needing to be transported.
