Phil Richter was the guest for this Space Show program. Phil is the conference coordinator for the Space Exploration 2007 Conference and Second Space Elevator Conference, both of which are in Albuquerque, NM March 25-28, 2007. This program was dedicated to discussing this conference, explaining why it is a unique space conference and what it has to offer for people attending. Carla, a listener and one who is presenting at the conference, called to talk about her presentation which focuses what was once present in our community and now seems missing in terms of being able to undertake the type of space program represented by the VSE. Her paper will certainly be informative. Mr. Richter then discussed some of the keynote talks planned for the conference including talks by Dr. Alan Hale, Dr. Brad Edwards, Dr. Benaroya, Ben Shelef, Dr. Bryan Laubscher, and several from NASA including John Connolly who leads the engineering design for NASA's next human lunar lander. This conference makes wide use of panel discussions as well as individual papers so it is sure to be informative, exciting, fast moving, and a terrific event for networking.
