A copy of very same book in which I found a picture of the Pathfinder without its SRBs is up for auction at eBay. It’s a very small book, at only 32 pages, but it’s easily worth a few bucks. The auction is here, and the seller posted the following… Continue reading
I’ve updated the campers’ sites links section with a link to the webpage for International Space Camp 2000. Enjoy!
I have just updated the page of HabLinks with a fantastic site I recently discovered. Estelle Tidey won a trip last summer to the 2000 session of International Space Camp by writing a wonderful essay on the International Space Station. Estelle’s “Space Nut” section on her website details her experience… Continue reading
I recently acquired a currently out-of-print book titled, “Let’s Visit A Space Camp.” The book, which dates back to 1990, contained, among other great photos, one taken before the Pathfinder received its SRB’s. Pretty great stuff!

I was eating dinner at Taco Bell last night and on the paper insert on my tray was an ad from the National Kidney Foundation featuring the space shuttle with the slogan, “About the only vehicle we can’t accept.” The ad is trying to get people to donate their vehicles… Continue reading
No, your intrepid webmaster isn’t dead! I know this site hasn’t been updated for some time, but let me assure you that that’s true in appearance only…sort of… I’m currently spending most of the time I have to work on this site working on the CamperFinder project. It’s coming along… Continue reading
YAAU (Yet Another Archive Update)! To the files archives, I have added a copy of the Advanced Space Academy Cadence. The ASA Cadence was modified from an army cadence by a former ASA counselor, Space Camp Dave. It’s really funny, and quite appropriate to march to while at ASA!
