Launching Virginia's space industry, Roanoke Times
"With the Orion space capsule and the Space Launch System the latest federal space launch system already set for the Kennedy Space Center, Space Florida selfishly continues to seek to nix human spaceflight from Virginia. Florida seeks to soak up all domestic federal space dollars. Virginians need to know of the newfound position in space technology capability within our commonwealth. As NASA Watch blogger and Northern Virginia resident Keith Cowing pointed out, fewer than one in 100 in the state have realization of the commercial space launch pad assets on Wallops Island. This state of knowledge must change."
