Mike Snead was the guest for this special Space Show program live from Grand Forks, ND as I am here teaching at UND Space Studies this week. Our topic was establishing space infrastructure and there is nobody more capable of discussing this topic than Mike Snead. As you will hear during this show, creating and putting into place space infrastructure is essential to becoming space faring. Mike received many listener questions about infrastructure ranging from costs, deployment, public versus private responsibility, technology, etc. Many listeners wanted to know why we had not done a comprehensive show on this subject before this one. Questions were asked about the Moon, the timing of infrastructure deployment per the time line Mike suggested and if contradictions existed due to the timing differences. Listen for his response. We also talked about the National Aerospace Plane Program and scramjet. You will not want to miss this discussion. Mike also talked about space advocacy and how to be effective with it. This is a very comprehensive discussion of space infrastructure and the reasons why we need it and it needs to be a priority. Mike Snead has a blog, check it out at http://spacefaringamerica.net. His email address for additional comments and questions is mike@mikesnead.net.
