The Space Show will be bringing you daily short interviews (10-15 minutes each) with listeners who will share with us why they believe the new website and archival quality database will be important to them and enhance their Space Show listening experience. For the third of these short programs, we welcomed back Richard Easton. Richard has been a guest several times regarding GPS, the role his father played in timing and creating GPS, and his book on the subject. He is also a frequent caller to The Space Show. Richard talked about using Space Show archives to research his recent GPS book, some of the challenges he faced given the existing website and archive limitations, plus his looking forward to having the benefit of a fully searchable database with archival quality archives. I asked if this was only important to him as an historian or author or if he thought the new site would have value for a space enthusiast not writing a book or doing research. Don't miss his answer. He also talked about the quality of Space Show programming, guests, and the way the show is managed, all of which contributed mightily to his research for his book. Be for we ended the segment, I asked about his next project which was to write about P.V.H. Weems and his early contribution to aviation navigation.
