On this week's interview, Paul sits down with Doug Messier who
writes and runs the website Parabolic Arc. The site itself deals
with the private space industry and the many people and players
involved in it.
Messier recently wrote an article, "Spaceport America and
Virgin Galactic: The Numbers Never Added Up" which looks back at
some promises made by Richard Branson and others involved with
Virgin Galactic and Spaceport America and deconstructs the "pie in
the sky" promises made. Finally, Paul and Doug discuss the safety
of the rockets being launched at the Spaceport.
