A longtime friend of The Planetary Society and member of the Advisory Council since 1999, Robert Picardo joined the Society’s Board of Directors, excited to help influence the world of space science and exploration. Bob's childhood passion for the life sciences forged his enduring interest in the origins of life. Tantalizing recent discoveries of water on Mars and the possibility of finding microbial life made the invitation to join the Board auspicious and irresistible. Bob hopes to bring even more of the science fiction audience to the Planetary Society membership. He believes, "Science fiction dreams the dream and helps pave the way for real science and exploration to fulfill that dream. If you love science fiction, you love exploration and you belong in The Planetary Society."
