The Science Circle Foundation is hosting this roundtable discussion to enhance their Immersive Experience.
Participants will experience firsthand how Moon Base Project members tackle difficult issues in weekly meetings to design and build a safe and sustainable lunar base.
The event will start with an open dialog about the guiding questions to exchange perspectives on these and more difficult questions, after which Project members will share how they communicate and collaborate effectively in a virtual world.
Guiding Questions:
Who owns the Moon? Who should live and work there? All participants can engage in these.
Objectives:
Participants will be able to engage in a discussion of a controversial issue with no correct answer.
Participants will be able to learn how a diverse international group collaborates in a virtual world.
