Board of Advisors
The Board of Advisors is comprised of individuals from the media, entertainment industry, and the space, engineering, and science communities. Our Advisors provide the Foundation with ideas and perspectives on policy, strategy and/or operations, and keep us informed about new developments and targets of opportunity from their respective vantage points. The Board is diverse enough that disagreement is not uncommon, thus creating a fertile intellectual environment. Not only does the Board shape the focus of our projects and documents, but they act as representatives of credibility and expertise for the Foundation’s mission in general. The Foundation is fortunate to have these individuals working with us:
- David Brody, Space.com

- Freeman Dyson, Physicist
- Rene Echeveria, Producer – “Deep Space Nine”

- Herman Zimmerman, Chief Designer – “Star Trek”
We are transforming space from a government- owned bureaucratic program into a dynamic and inclusive frontier open to people. We are determined to convert the image held by many young people that the future will be worse than the present, and we reject the idea that the world's greatest moments are in its past.
