After weeks of anticipation, we had an amazing Space Medicine for Earthlings Industry Sundowner last night. Special thanks to our co-hosts at Australia in Space magazine: Director and Executive Editor and panel moderator for the evening Chris Cubbage, Director David Matrai, and Head of Communications Laura-Jane Hawkins.

The panel discussion was lively and the audience questions were engaging and provoking, ranging from "How will people reproduce on Mars?" to "How do we prepare for unknown unknowns?" and even "Just because we can go to Mars, does that mean we should, especially when there are so many critical issues to address on Earth?"

Moderated by Chris Cubbage, Executive Editor of the Australia in Space Magazine, the esteemed panelists are:

  • Professor Tracy Smart AO, Air Vice-Marshal (Ret’d) BMBS, MPH, MA, Dip AvMed, FRACMA, FACAsM, FAsMA, FCDSS, FACHSM (Hon)
  • Prof. Gordon Cable AM, specialist in aerospace medicine
  • Asso. Prof. David W. Kim, ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences
  • Dr Ben Bramble, ANU College of Science
