History of the Red Planet Satellite Report
The idea for
the Red Planet Satellite Report was born at a
meeting between chapter and task force leaders at the 1999 Mars
Society convention (the second annual gathering held in Boulder,
Colorado). Almost everybody in attendance felt the need for
better internal Mars Society communication, and an internal
bi-weekly newsletter seemed to be the best solution.
The Red
Planet Satellite Report is made up of individual reports
submitted by all Mars Society chapters around the world (which
currently counts almost 100 independent organizations), as
well as all Mars Society projects and task forces, such as
the group building and operating the
Mars Arctic Research Station.
Richard
Wagner , co-author of The Case for Mars
and editor of the
New Mars Journal, served as the first editor of the Red
Planet Satellite Report from August 1999 until February
2000.
Upon the formation
of the Chapter's Council in February 2000, it was decided
that the Red Planet Satellite Report would
become a publication of the Chapter's Council. It was agreed
that Jim Plaxco, the Secretary of Communications for
the Chapter's Council and the representative to the council
for the
Illinois Chapters would become the editor.
