As we enter a pivotal moment of space exploration, two experts will answer questions about what the future holds.

Christian Davenport covers NASA and the space industry for The Washington Post's Financial desk. He joined The Post in 2000 and is the author of “The Space Barons: Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and the Quest to Colonize the Cosmos.” He was a consulting producer of “Space: The Private Frontier,” a two-hour documentary that aired on the Discovery and Science Channels, and a producer and co-host of “Space Launch Live,” the networks’ Emmy-award-winning live broadcast of SpaceX’s first crewed mission, which was the highest rated, non-primetime telecast in Discovery’s history.

A NASA veteran who flew on all three Space Shuttles, Garrett Reisman was selected by NASA as a mission specialist astronaut in 1998. His first mission in 2008 was aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour, which dropped him off for a 95-day stay aboard the International Space Station after which he returned to Earth aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery. His second mission in 2010 was aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis. During these missions, Garrett performed three spacewalks, operated the Space Station Robot Arm and was a flight engineer aboard the Space Shuttle.
