NASA and Industry Join Forces for Virginia Aerospace Day
“NASA leaders from Langley Research Center in Hampton and Wallops Flight Facility on the Eastern Shore will join aerospace industry representatives statewide to bring this message to Virginia General Assembly members on AeroSpace Days 2012, Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 8-9, in Richmond. Concluding the two-day event, media are invited to a news conference at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 9, in the General Assembly 4 West Conference Room.”
Keith’s 6 Feb 10 pm EST note: No mention on the WFF website– but it is mentioned at LaRC.
Keith’s 7 Feb 10 am 3 pm EST note: Still no mention by Wallops. This is pretty pathetic. Wallops expects to get attention in Richmond and yet their management is incapable of updating its own website about this event? Not even the local media (Daily Press, Virginia-Pilot, Delmarva News) has picked up on it.
Maybe if NASA paid $1M per kg of food, robots, propellant, water or material landed on the moon, we could get a base built. Once built, it would be easier to get voter support and mount a manned mission to a habitable base.
