Space Tourist Update

Letter from NASA Watch, Anousheh Ansari Space Blog

“But this is just the beginning of Anoushehs journey. The real journey begins when she returns to Earth and how she takes the excitement of the moment and transforms it into long-term change – for the better.”

“Ms. Ansari is a Woman of Mass Instruction (WMI) in the global contest of ideas. While so many pillory the United States these days and the west in general for being in decline, decadent, yada, yada, yada, Ms. Ansari’s exploits explode these myths. Would she have this opportunity if she grew up in any middle eastern country? How about South America?”
