We discussed the origins of the Yuri's Night celebration, where the parties were being held around the world, what the parties are like and the fact that they speak to people of all ages and interests. In addition to talking about Yuri's Night, we Ms. Eckardt talked about the Plantronics "Win A Trip To Space" promotion and she provided us with some new insights about the developing space industry. Her insights were especially valuable given she has also been working to start her own online business and she can readily draw parallels to starting up an alt.space business.
