My education of matters of space exploration continues. Now I will be looking into this proposition: A manned mission to Mars. Zubrin has been a big proponent of this. However, I am a bit skeptical going in. The book, "The Case for Mars" is not available yet on Kindle, so I may wait for it to become available. Or if I get in a hurry, maybe I'll just order up an older version of the book. This new one will be an updated version of the original which went to the presses in 1997, I believe.
I did check some customer reviews on Amazon. It is mostly positive, but that doesn't necessarily tell you anything. There was one negative review by a Ms. Tutt which I would tend to agree with at the moment.
She is also critical of another one of his books. Unfortunately, I think Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit tends to agree with Zubrin. It should be noted here though, that I don't regard anything that anybody writes as gospel. If I don't agree with Zubrin, I will not be hesitant to say so. It won't make any difference who says otherwise.
