The Future is Nuclear with Robert Zubrin

Could nuclear power solve our energy future, and could Mars become humanity's next frontier for civilization-building? Join Atlas Society Senior Scholar Richard Salsman, Ph.D., for the 318th episode of Objectivley Speaking in which he sits down with returning guest Robert Zubrin to talk about his new books "The Case for Nukes: How We Can Beat Global Warming and Create a Free, Open, and Magnificent Future," which argues that nuclear power is essential to solving the climate crisis while preserving human freedom and prosperity, and "The New World on Mars: What We Can Create on the Red Planet," a vision for the settlements, industries, and societies that could take root on Mars. Robert Zubrin is an aerospace engineer, founder of the Mars Society and Pioneer Astronautics, and the architect of the Mars Direct exploration plan. He is best known as the author of the seminal book The Case for Mars, which helped shape modern thinking on human space exploration.
