Space Daily reports on "Speaking Out In Support Of Space Commercialization"
How do we get from space stations to hotels, or space shuttles and soyuzes to space liners? What barriers exist to achieving commercialization of space? Which country will lead the commercialization of space? What should NASA, academia and industry be doing now to inspire the next generation of space explorers?
Issues like these will be discussed in Houston, Texas at the World Space Congress 2002 on October 18. Exciting times are ahead for our expansion into space, so long as we can keep the government, technophobes and Marxists at bay.
