190 (Special Edition) |  Listen to the show! | | Aired on January 27th, 2004 | | Guest: Dr. Clark Lindsey |
| Dr. Clark Lindsey returned to The Space Show for this program. Dr. Lindsey, founder and owner of www.hobbyspace.com, one of the web's best resources for space and space related matters, interviews, and factual information for advocates, the general public, and everyone, talked about the importance of bringing a proper space understanding and appreciation to the public and all people interested in space. We examined the Bush space policy proposal in detail, discussed a return to the Moon and on to Mars, and we discussed the two Mars rovers currently on the surface of the Red Planet. Dr. Lindsey examined the suborbital industry, the major players such as Scaled Composites, SpaceX, and others, their plans and what their success will mean for the industry and especially for NASA and Congress. He also discussed the RLV industry, what is needed to develop such a vehicle, the private sector gaining control of space access, humans versus robotic missions, especially to Mars. He fielded questions about commercial asteroid development and much more. We talked about funding for space programs, the upcoming political campaigns and what space will likely be like for the various candidates, and Dr. Lindsey looked into his Magic Space Ball and told us what he believes will unfold for 2004 as space successes and important developments that drive us forward to becoming space-faring.

| About our guest... |
Dr. Clark Lindsey
Dr. Clark Lindsey is the founder and owner of www.hobbyspace.com, one of the web's premier resources for space information and research for space professionals and the general public. The companion weblog www.SpaceTransportNews.com has become a popular source of news and information about the latest developments in the New Space movement. His primary goal is to get the public involved in space related activities either directly or vicariously. Space should become a real and vibrant part of their lives rather than just a remote, abstract domain where a small number of government employees do esoteric research. Furthermore, he wants to convince the public that humans can accomplish great things in space not just on the long term "Star Trek" time scale but within our own time. Dr. Lindsey has a PhD in experimental physics from the University of California at Riverside. After post-docs with Iowa State and Fermilab, he worked for several years at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. Currently he does computer programming and web project development. He was a co-author in 2005 of the book JavaTech (Cambridge University Press).
