ISDC 25
Dale Amon (Belfast, Northern Ireland/Laramie, Wy)  Aerospace

I write this as I am flying at some 36,000 feet over the midwest on my way to Los Angeles and the 25th annual International Space Development Conference (ISDC). I chair the committee which overseas the local conference teams so I will be busy with that and other National Space Society (NSS) management duties. But despite much work ahead, I will try to do an occassional live blog.

This is quite an event we of NSS (along with our major co-sponsor this year, The Planetary Society) have going this week. Pretty much everyone who matters in the space world will be there. If you are interested in space tourism or commercial space, this is the place to be.

I hope to see some of you!

It is now the next afternoon. When I went to file the story I got drafted into making the conference wifi network and router work so that I could use it.

Well .. you won't see me but do stop in and check out our Tom Nugent - he's got several presentations and panels.

I hope to see some of you!

While I am going to be in LA this weekend, I'm afraid not working in aerospace anymore means the boss won't let me expense the $150 door charge.

Please drop me a line if there's an offsite SIGBAP* meeting after the event.
