Mark Whittington, author and journalist, returned as our guest for this Space Show program. We talked about multiple topics including space remaining a bipartisan issue with support during this presidential election period. We talk about Artemis lunar missions and expressed a skeptical & concerning attitude. SLS and Starship were part of our discussion. Boeing and Starliner, including crew safety were a big part of our discussion. Musk made the list of topics as did Blue, Jeff, and RocketLab. Near the end Mark mentioned the "Space Cadets for Harris" group. His newsletter email on this subject has been posted on the blog for those of you interested in and in watching the meeting they had as it was live streamed and recorded.
