2007 - should be a great year for all our Spaceports!



Actually I have started another Space Blog but since this one is actually here, I can update, so here goes.
First we have Bigelow Aerospace and this picture is of their plant in North Las Vegas, NV. Bigelow has 100 employees at this plant working steadily. They already have an inflatable spacecraft orbiting the earth at 300 miles up! Genesis I and will soon send up Genesis II. They are real space pioneers and plan to build a basic inexpensive space hotel for tourists who can't afford the luxury of the planned Hilton, etc. space hotels. Then we have a photo of the Canadian Arrow, which is Canada's addition to suborbital space ventures. All very exciting.
