Many space industry insiders talk excitedly about a human return to the Moon, but how does the general public feel about this endeavor? Do they think it will really happen and how does it stack up against a long list of priorities for our home planet?

In this week's episode, I speak with Nathan Price about his project, Countdown to the Moon, in which he interviews one person every day until humans are set to return to the Moon in 2024. Nathan and I will discuss how his passion project has evolved into an important time capsule of public sentiment regarding the planned Artemis missions and valuable lessons learned from his conversations so far.

My guest on the show, Nathan Price, is a grassroots space advocate who is spreading the vision of humanity expanding out into the solar system for this generation and the next.  He founded the North Houston Space Society in 2017, an organization that seeks to educate the local community about space exploration and future mission development.  Nathan is also a National Space Society Space Ambassador. You will find Nathan at the International Space Development Conference (ISDC), New Worlds Conference, and International Astronautical Congress (IAC), among other places.
