Guest: Dennis Wingo. Topics: Private space capital, visionaries, and private spaceflight. We welcomed Dennis Wingo back to The Space Show. Rather than describe this program by its three segments, I want to talk about the overriding theme of the show which focused on the need to have space visionaries and to attract and invest private capital in private space ventures. In having this conversation, Dennis also talked about the risks for companies in taking public money.

Guest: Robert Zimmerman. Topics: Falcon 9 successful launch, U.S. Space Policy, Bat fungus and caves. We welcomed back Robert Zimmerman to talk all things space policy. We started our first segment with a discussion on the successful Falcon 9 launch on June 4, 2010. Bob said it was exhilarating to watch and we all had high praise for Space X. Our guest talked at length about the need for the private sector to continue with these successes to lower the cost of space access.
