Airborne 11.07.14: Santa Monica Setback, Space Oddity Returns, A/C Icing Update

Also: Moon Express, Safari Helis Go Superior, Barnstorming On Media Accuracy, ISS Orbits On, 50th Anniversary of LLRV

A City-sponsored ballot initiative has passed in Santa Monica, California, leaving the future of Santa Monica Municipal Airport in the hands of the City Council that has been trying to close it.

Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield made quite a splash with his video rendition of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" recorded while on orbit aboard the International Space Station. But when the original one-year agreement between Hadfield and Bowie expired, the video was pulled from YouTube. It’s reported that the astronaut, the Canadian Space Agency, David Bowie, and Bowie's publisher immediately went to work to create a new deal that would allow the video to live on. Moon Express, a privately-funded start-up with headquarters in Silicon Valley, hopes to begin flight testing of its lunar lander in a few days with an eye towards claiming the Google Lunar XPRIZE. All this... and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
