The Space Foundation Conference

Feedback: What did you think of this show?: 

This special two hour Friday Space Show program presents two great programs. The first hour , Kenneth Davis, author, was with us. Ken has many books to his fame but we primarily talked about "Don't Know Much About The Universe." This is a fun and informative program that you will not want to miss. Ken is with us for about 40 minutes and then I pick up and make the announcements I would normally make during the first few minutes of the show. While Ken Davis was with us, we had lots of listener questions about education, kids books, rare space facts and much more. At times, we connected mythology, history, and religion to space. Do not miss this show. I am working to bring Ken Davis back later this year for a full program for the holiday season. The second hour of this program brings us Dr. David Webb. Dr. Webb brings decades of space, government, and academic experience to us to talk frankly and directly with us about the the direction we are going with space in the country, our youth, and our government. Dr. Webb helps us to understand the importance and value of space and space development. As you will hear in this program, he is a big believer in the potential of the private sector and less of a believer in the government space program and NASA. He fielded many listener questions about policy then and now, the VSE, India, China, and various administrations and their space consciousness. We learned some very important things in history such as the report his National Commission on Space prepared was never show to President Reagan because staffers did not want space to have funding. You will find this story very interesting. If you have questions for either Ken Davis or Dr. David Webb, send them to me at drspace@thespaceshow.com and I will forward them for responses. I hope to have both guests back on The Space Show in the not too distant future.
