We conclude our consideration of US space policy in the 21st Century with a conversation about a new plan for human exploration. Planetary Society Executive Director Lou Friedman and distinguished associates introduced the new Roadmap in a Washington media briefing. Bill Nye is all over the big announcement that we can now actually see extrasolar planets. Emily Lakdawalls tells us why we can trust other nations' claims about space accomplishments. Bruce Betts and Mat Kaplan look through the smoke at the night sky and present a new What's Up trivia contest.
