About Me

My photo
Van Kane
You can contact me at futureplanets1@gmail.com with any questions or comments. I have followed planetary exploration since I opened my newspaper in 1976 and saw the first photo from the surface of Mars. The challenges of conceiving and designing planetary missions has always fascinated me. I don't have any formal tie to NASA or planetary exploration (although I use data from NASA's Earth science missions in my professional work as an ecologist). Corrections and additions always welcome.
