SUMMARY:WMoF Celebrity Series: Space for Everyone - Satellites are Changing the Planet
DESCRIPTION:A few things have recently changed mankind: cellphones, the Internet, etc.  One of the overlooked items are satellites.  Satellites may have a bigger effect on mankind then the Internet and cellphones because satellites can deliver both of those items plus much, much more.  America is now going thru the growth period for private satellites.  Today we have Dan Hart, CEO, Virgin Orbit, to enlightened us about the changing nature of the satellite business and about how Long Beach-based rocket maker Virgin Orbit is playing a critical role in busting down the barriers that limit the utilization of space.  Satellites improve life for people all around the planet — but so long as satellites are expensive, rare, and exclusive to only a few nations and a few companies, that improvement comes with real limitations. A new day is dawning now in the space industry, with the price of missions coming down dramatically, opening up space to new players and allowing the traditional leaders to do more with less money. <br/>Also we will have updated info about the Wings of Freedom Tour (4/26 – 4/29) from Collings Foundation. <br/>Always visit www.WMoF.com for more.
