About the Author:
Wendy Whitman Cobb is a Professor at the Air Force School of Advanced Air and Space Studies and a leading voice on the politics of space exploration. But before all that, she was a Disney kid and self-proclaimed space nerd. She is someone who believes Tomorrowland shouldn’t just be a land in a theme park, but a challenge to build the future… a dreamer. When she’s not teaching or writing about how NASA shapes national priorities and innovation, you’ll probably find her on a Disney cruise ship (the Fantasy will always be her favorite), scanning the horizon for rocket launches.
