This will help me bring better programming to the audience. We welcomed back Rand Simberg for a 1 hour 36 minute discussion regarding our HSF dependency on Russia, risk taking space safety, and more. In our first segment, Rand talked about his book, "Safe Is Not An Option" (see www.safeisnotanoption.com), as well as his pointing out that what he said in his book about our growing dependence on Russia for our HSF is coming to pass. This led to a discussing of the Sen. Shelby language in the proposed NASA funding appropriations bill to account for fixed costs in a similar way such costs are accounted for in the FAR. Rand summarized his HSF safety comments by repeating one of his better known statements that many of us agree with, that is HSF is not important! He discussed his meaning of this statement throughout today's program. Rand talked about HSF being worth the risk, 16 years of ISS and only now starting to do useful things, one of which he identified as an important drug project for curing MSRA. This discussion prompted several listener emails including one from Jim asking if we were seeing the end of NASA/government HSF? Tony asked Rand what he would favor were he the supreme space dictator of the country. Rand suggested returning to the old NACA model. Later, he said HSF is not a mature industry and compared to the 1920s airplane design as that is where spaceflight design is today. He had much to say about safety as a priority and safety regulations. In the second segment, Ben asked him about SpaceX being qualified for AF spy satellite launches. I asked Rand about the Dragon V2 as he was present at the unveiling. He went inside the capsule and shared his perspectives with us. Space settlement came up and Rand received many email questions referring to it. He was asked about SpaceX fast tracking Dragon V2 depending on what happens with the Russians. We talked about influencing congress and Rand suggested writing to members of congress as the count is totaled by the members. Given the overall low numbers for the space advocacy community, getting letters to congress is important. Near the end of the segment, he was asked about Inspiration Mars and Mars One, he talked about the serious need for a gravity lab to determine the minimal gravity prescription. Before our discussion ended, we talked about the NRC Pathways study on HSF and Mars. Please post your comments/questions on The Space Show blog above. You can contact Rand through his book website, Transterrestrial Musings (www.transterrestrial.com), or me.

During our first segment, Dr. Laubscher talked about carbon nanotubes, the manufacturing process, how to move the process and technology forward, end uses for the product, possible timelines for advancement and the current day use of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) in the process. Brian talked about the need to find a better process for making carbon nanotubes than CVD. Later is this segment, Dr. Laubscher was asked about the potential relationship to space other than with the space elevator. This was an interesting discussion , don't miss it. In our second segment, Brian talked about how hard and challenging the space elevator was and later in the segment, due to a call from Pooley, we went through many of the top challenges faced by the elevator with a status report on each one. As this segment was opening, I did ask Brian for a time line for space elevator advancement. Our guest suggested that at some point, there would be significant demand for the elevator. Next, we talked about the upcoming International Space Elevator 2014 Conference to be held at the Museum of Flight in Seattle, August 22-24, 2014. For conference info, visit www.spaceelevatorconference.org. John from Ft. Worth called to talk about materials, composites and much more. We also talked about the strength needed for the elevator ribbon and John asked about SSTO. Blaze emailed us about nuclear waste and Brian had an interesting take on it. This was another valuable discussion, don't miss it. Dr. Laubscher talked about ribbon length, characteristics, strength needed, and its location in space, plus the counter weights it would need. Adrian emailed several questions to us about the ribbon breaking and related issues. He also asked our guest radiation issues. Doug emailed about ways to climb up and down the ribbon. Some of the other issues that came up were wind, lightening, ribbon oscillation, space debris, policy & regulatory issues. As our program was ending, Brian offered us words of wisdom and said his company website was www.odysseustech.com.

During the first segment of our 90 minute program, Kevin said that the 2014 completion was the biggest ever with 31 teams of which 23 made it to Hanksville, UT for the competition. He noted that the competition takes place in the Utah desert near MDRS and Hanksville, Utah. Kevin went over the rules and guidelines during this segment, the financial limits on the rover teams, the tasks the rovers had to do, especially in comparison to last year's competition, the way the rovers have to be driven by their team driver, and what happens if a team has to physically intervene to resolve a rover problem once the rover has started its mission. We did talk about the international makeup of the teams, including this year having a team from Bangladesh and Cairo. Also, the same team from Poland as last year, Hyperion, won first place this year as well. You can see the list of winners by visiting http://urc.marssociety.org/home and looking at the congratulations box on the home page. Kevin talked about the global interest in robotics and the way the competition has grown over its 8 year history. Doug called in asking lots of questions but he also wanted to know about the prizes and if the prizes served as the incentive to enter the contest. In this discussion we talked about the importance of STEM & Kevin described in details the tasks the rovers had to complete and how they were scored. In the second segment, we talked more about what happens with a breakdown and I asked if any teams complete the tasks without a breakdown. We also talked about the availability of spare parts out in the desert, then Sally asked about the team demographics and diversity. More questions came in about repairs, then Kevin was asked about the desert terrain. He said it differs each year depending on rain and weather. This year the desert sand was very course and rough on the rovers, probably because of the large amounts of rain in the area during the year. A question came in asking if the rovers had to be Mars compatible, what kind of wheels or tires they used, and if there was common frame or other technology among all the rovers. Please post your comments/questions on The Space Show blog. You can reach Kevin through me. Selected by: David Livingston [ stations ], Sat, 07 Jun 2014 19:15:25 UTC

For those listening to archives using live365.com and rating the programs, please email me as to why you assign a specific rating to the show. This will help me bring better programming to the audience. We welcomed back Clay Mowry to the program to discuss Arianespace and the launcher industry. During the first segment of our 90 minute discussion, we took on the subject of the upcoming last EASA ATV 5 flight to the ISS. Mr. Mowry explained why this program to the ISS was ending and that after this last flight, there would be only one vehicle capable of boosting the ISS. He talked about U.S. priorities in building up cargo capability to the ISS without boost capability over commercial crew. We also talked about the life expectancy of the ISS amid the current controversies with Russia and the US. I asked Clay for a brief history of the launcher Ariane 5 and we learned that they now have 59 successful launches for this rocket. Our guest talked about Ariane 5 performance capabilities plus upgrades that are in progress for an Ariane 5 ME. We talked about launch price/cost and its relationship to how customers determine what launcher to use. As he said the last time he was on the show, customers need launcher reliability and the ability to launch on schedule. Launch costs are an overall factor of the total risk of the launcher, the value of the satellite, opportunity costs, infrastructure costs, and more. This is a very informative discussion and it continued into the second segment. Our guest also said that human spaceflight poses different issues than launching telecommunications satellites and is more sensitive to launch costs. Listeners asked about government subsidies to Arianespace and their not turning a profit despite their commercial success. This opened up a discussion about all forms of government subsidies, including the methods used in the U.S. to subsidize and support our launcher industry. We talked about the planned new Ariane 6 rocket and its differences with Ariane 5. We also talked about rocket development time lines. Rocket reusability came up and this proved to be a great discussion topic that continued into the second segment. Clay provided us with very important perspectives regarding reusability. Dr. Jurist called to go deeper into the issue of launch pricing, insurance, and related items. Don't miss it. Clay referenced several studies on this subject including the Futron NASA Ascent Study which examined launch costs among other things. Our guest talked about ways the satellite industry is working to reduce launch costs by making satellites more powerful and lighter.

You can learn more about the NewSpace 2014 conference by visiting https://newspace.spacefrontier.org. To learn about the Lightening Pitch, go to http://newspacebpc.com/lightning-pitch-2014. In the first segment of our 90 minute show, Tom and Meagan described this year's Lightening Pitch, talked about the sponsors and the $20,000 in prize money, and they gave us hints of what the new and expanded business plan competition for 2015 will be like. We honed in on the approaching entry deadline which is 5PM EDT on Saturday, June 7. There are no entry fees and all one has to do is submit up to a 3 page Executive Summary for their business startup idea. The selected contestants will have four minutes to deliver their pitch the first day of the NewSpace Conference, then they will have a 3 minutes Question and Answer session where contestants will field provoking questions from the “Shark Tank” of Investor/Judges. The winners will be announced that evening at a special Lightening Round conference VIP event. Submit your entry using compete@newspacebpc.com. During this segment, Tom and Meagan took questions about the history and overall success of the business plan competition, trends in NewSpace, oversight issues, team size and issues, and questions about winning topics and how to make a killer presentation. In the second segment, we talked about space investments becoming routine and the possible timeline for this to happen. Our guests talked about nanotech & its influence on the entrepreneurial community. A listener asked our guests about competition bias and included space solar power projects (SSP) as an example. Another listener wanted to know if the competition was biased toward one person businesses. Here, our guests had much to say about teams, how to counter a one person plan, and why judges prefer seeing a team in place rather than just one person. Toward the end of the program, we talked about expected ROIs and exit strategy time lines for the winning plans, plus for the space industry in general. Both our guests summarized the Lightening Round by saying there was no entry fee, the deadline for a simple Executive Summary of no more than 3 pages is this Saturday, June 7, and they look forward to receiving your entry.

This will help me bring better programming to the audience. We welcomed James Pura and Aaron Oesterle to the program to discuss The Space Frontier Foundation's Space Settlement Enabling Test (see http://spacefrontier.org/settlement-enabling-test). During the first segment of our 90 minute program, James and Arron went over the history of how the Space Settlement Enabling Test got its start within the SFF. We also learned that it is in response to public space programs, not private programs though parts of the test would be applicable to private ventures but applying it that way is not a purpose of the Foundation. The SFF Board votes on the projects being applied to the test with the results being published on the SFF website (http://spacefrontier.org). We learned that the test consists of 21 questions in seven categories with each question having a voting range of 1-5. There is a score for the project being subjected to the test but there is no pass or fail. For example, the Foundation applied the test to the now defunct Constellation program and its score was 36.5%. Our guests explained in detail how the test worked and during this segment and part of the second segment, they went through the questions in each of the seven categories. Listeners had many questions for them including how they planned on measuring the effectiveness of the test and the outcome. Our guests talked about both the inside and outside means of using the test and getting the results out to the market, policy makers, etc. One listener asked James & Aaron if the test was jumping the gun since space settlement is far off into the future. Don't miss the reply to this question offered by both our guests. Doug called to talk about applying his Cis Lunar 1 project to the Space Settlement Enabling Test. Prior to the end of the segment, our guests talked about the importance of insuring sustainability for space settlement and how that was reflected in the test. In the second segment, we finished going through the balance of the test and then we opened up the discussion for questions. In discussing the final categories, our guests brought up the issue and importance of space property rights, competition, and the need for a tax payer ROI on public space ventures. We talked about what may contribute to a public sector ROI. In the question segment, nuclear propulsion was brought up, our guests were asked if they had applied SLS to the test. Each of our guests offer us important closing comments and take aways from our discussion. Post your comments/questions on TSS blog. You can reach our guests through the SFF website or me.

During the first segment of our 90 minute program, Emily went over her background and how she came to have an interest in space and in particular space science and geology. Some of our topics included the tectonics of Venus, asteroid mining, her interest in the outer planets of the solar system, and science missions either ongoing or to be conducted in the future. I mentioned a possible Europa mission which led to a Europa discussion and Emily talking about the ESA JUICE mission (JUpiter ICy moons Explorer). We talked about being able to cut the travel time to the outer planets for science missions and our guest mentioned the possible use of SLS to do that. Don't miss this discussion. Also in this segment, we talked about upcoming comet and asteroid mission, then we switched gears to discuss robotic challenges. Here, Emily pointed out the time lag for communications to Mars and beyond makes telerobotic control difficult at best. We talked about having a Mars orbiter to control surface robots. Were we doing this, the robots could be simpler as they would not need as much autonomous capabilities as they need now based on Earth communications. Emily told us about Planetary Society projects and programs, we talked about man in the street interviews regarding space & our guest shared her experiences with us when Shuttle Endeavour came to Los Angeles. Near the end of this long segment, Kepler came up, questions came up about Earth geology being similar to the geology of the planets, the lack of fossil fuels on other planets, then Doug called with a question about coalition building & the NASA science budget. As the segment ended, we asked Emily about robotic exploration as compared to having a human geologist on the surface of the planet. BJohn from Sweden sent us emails about Curiosity on Mars and Venus. In our second segment, we talked about relevant time spans and how missions get prioritized. Emily went over the Venus challenges. She was asked if the Planetary Society would try another Phobos-Grunt mission and we talked about their project, the Mars Microphone to bring back to Earth the sounds from Mars. Toward the end of the program, Emily was asked about the importance of lowering launch costs for science missions and the promotion of space advocacy.
