This excites and inspires like the original Apollo mission.  I 
thought we would be going much sooner after the lunar landings, but I 
may live to see this done.  That would be terrific.

Not sure there is any ham radio opportunity with the mission.  No 
harm in thinking about that.

2019 is 50-years after Apollo-11 landing on the Moon.
