Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough,
if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows
us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not
that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often
hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts
confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this
is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat
sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to
ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the
sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new
spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into
cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via
Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments
are always welcome, as well.
Aero-Linx: Space Adventures
Space Adventures' vision is to open spaceflight and the space
frontier to private citizens. Over the next decade Space Adventures
will fly more people to space than have made the journey since the
dawn of the Space Age. Their clients will fly on suborbital
flights, on voyages to Earth orbit and on historic expeditions that
circumnavigate the moon. Flights will leave from spaceports
both on Earth and in space, visiting private space stations, and
aboard dozens of different vehicles. By continually providing
newly available space experiences and improving existing space
experiences, Space Adventures will continue to lead the private
spaceflight industry that it begun in 2001 with the flight of the
world's first space tourist.
