The Robert A. Heinlein Memorial Award honors those individuals who have made significant, lifetime contributions to the creation of a free, space faring civilization. Their contributions can be in any form- such as scientific, technical, engineering, theoretical, written (fiction or non fiction), political, philosophical, visionary, public relations, or mass media, economic or business, etc., or a combination of the above. Those individuals whose actions have involved personal, social, or financial risk are particularly meritorious. Do not exclude anyone from consideration if his or her contribution is in only one area, such as engineering.
Only living individuals, or those who have been deceased less then three years prior to the starting date of the convention (died after May 23, 2001), and of any nationality, are eligible for this award. Previous winners include Dr. Gerald K. O’Neill, Sir Arthur C. Clarke, Dr. Wernher von Braun, Gene Roddenberry, Dr. Robert H. Goddard, Dr. Buzz Aldrin, Dr. Carl Sagan, Neil Armstrong, & Robert Zubrin. Sen. John Glenn has asked previously that he be removed from consideration to give someone else a chance of getting the award.
Please give a list of 3 choices in descending order of preference.
I appreciate it. :D
Edited to add: 3 is the number and the number shall be 3.
