Wally Schirra & Ed Buckbee, May 9, 2005 (35.95MB; download) -- Wally Schirra and Ed Buckbee returned to The Space Show to discuss their new book, "The Real Space Cowboys." This is a must read for anyone interested in our Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo space programs. The book, published by Apogee, includes a terrific DVD with lots of new material, some of it quite funny. Not only did Wally and Ed talk about their experiences and the history which they each lived, we discussed issues of current importance for our becoming space-faring. These topics included leadership, congress, today's NASA, education and outreach, private sector and space flight realities, rockets and much needed new technologies including nuclear, and so much more. This is a great interview, historic, and one you will not want to miss. And after you hear it, get their book. I promise you it will be one of the best if not the best space read you will have had in a long time. Listeners can contact Wally and Ed through their respective websites as they give out their URLs at the end of the show. As always, listeners can contact them both through me using drspace@thespaceshow.com. Selected by: David Livingston [ stations ], Thu, 12 May 2005 18:21:49 UTC

Kenneth Murphy, May 8, 2005 (37.63MB; download) -- Kenneth Murphy was the guest for this Space Show program. We began the interview by discussing Ken's involvement with the National Space Society and the coming ISDC annual conference for the NSS in Washington, DC later this month. We had an extensive discussion with Mr. Murphy about education, outreach, NASA outreach, NSS and other space organizations and their outreach programs. We had stimulating questions from the listeners in the area of education, space books and libraries, science considerations for students and much more. We shifted our focus to discuss the Hubble Space Telescope and commercial ventures. As Ken Murphy is involved in banking and lending, we talked about business plans, loans to the alt.space industry at this time, how best to create an industry, and many related topics. This is a show you will certainly want to hear. Selected by: David Livingston [ stations ], Thu, 12 May 2005 18:20:35 UTC

Alan Boyle, May 3, 2005 (39.16MB; download) -- Alan Boyle was the guest for this Space Show program. We talked about his work as MSNB.com's science editor, covering hydrocarbon formation theory to dinosaurs, and then on to space. Mr. Boyle was in Florida at the Cape for the dress rehearsal for the coming Discovery shuttle flight and reported to us on what was going on today as well as sharing his views with us on return to flight. We also discussed the ISS, repairing Hubble, the private sector entrepreneurial launch companies, space tourism, and the entire alt.space effort at commercial space industrialization. Mr. Boyle was asked questions about how space was regarded by people he meets and his peers in the news reporting and journalism fields. He reported that people were excited about the prospects for new space opportunities. We also discussed the new space vision, going on to the Moon and Mars. And while Mr. Boyle has some concerns, he is overall optimistic. He has a great interest in the private sector and we spent some significant time discussing the role of the private sector in space development. Listeners will be able to contact Mr. Boyle through the MSNBC.com website or you can do so by sending your note to drspace@thespaceshow.com.
