- I saw a lot of discussion here about the Planetary Society's Humans Orbiting Mars report last week, so we're doing an AMA over at /r/space with some of the JPL team--send us your technical questions, critiques, whatever. We're happy to answer them. https://www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/3o3yp1/we_just_released_the_humans_orbiting_mars_report/ 8 comments spacex
