Chris Baker is a Campaign Manager with NASA’s Flight Opportunities Program. The program uses commercial launch vehicles to test ideas for promising space-related technologies. This win-win approach helps foster development of game changing technologies helping us explore our solar system and beyond and it creates a synergy between government, academia and business that will keep America at the forefront of space exploration. One of the technologies being tested will enable spacecraft to recognize key geographical features on the surface of Mars to autonomously make precise and safe landings on the Red Planet. This truly is a case of technology driving exploration!
