Guests: Cathy Harper and Nino Polizzi were the guests for today's Space Show in order to discuss the upcoming DC-X Reunion which will take place in Alamogordo, New Mexico from August 17-18, 2008. You can find out more about this three day event entitled "Space Transportation for the 21st Century" by visiting its website : www.dcxproject.com/. During our discussion, Cathy not only talked about the upcoming event, registration and hotels, but we talked about the New Mexico Museum of Space History, educational outreach, and museum attractions. We learned that the museum has the DC-X hardware and is involved in a fundraising program to restore the DC-X for display. In addition, she mentioned that if anyone had the DC-X plans, they would certainly like to have a copy of them because it's not easy to restore the DC-X and, so far, they have not located the drawings. Nino, who actually worked on the DC-X project, seconded this call for the plans and drawings. In addition, Nino was asked many questions about the DC-X project, including requests to look back historically at the project and tell us if the team had any sense of their making history when they were working on the DC-X. We spoke with Nino about the team, its culture, its capabilities, and the objectives of DC-X and some of the legends and stories about the vehicle. We talked about space tourism, commercially using the DC-X and a listener even asked Nino to compare DC-X with SpaceShipOne, so don't miss this discussion. There is much more to what both Cathy and Nino discussed about the upcoming three day event and the DC-X project. We also talked about Pete Conrad and his legacy, plus what the space world might have looked like if Pete was with us today. Not only is this a must hear show, this event is a must attend event as it will bring together at least 40 of the original DC-X team members, plus many others who are speaking and participating in workshop. As people age, never again will there be such an opportunity as this one, so attending this event is an opening to being part of the real space history of a program that many believe should have gone forward and changed the world of space access.
