While we’re celebrating anniversaries here at hab1, I’m embarrassed to admit that I allowed 2010 to pass without noting that Aviation Challenge turned 20! Though Space Camp has always been my favorite thing, I understand quite clearly what a great program Aviation Challenge truly is. The new Space & Rocket Center management is looking to […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
10 years! 3,652 days! 87,649 hours! 5,259,000 minutes! 315,500,000 seconds! Hab1 has been around a while! It’s been a very interesting ten years! I would like to thank everyone that’s visited over the past decade. I would especially like to thank everyone who has contributed to the HabForum. I have enjoyed reading your 37,089 posts.

Tonight I went cruising by Space Camp’s website, looking for a digital copy of the 2010 brochure, as I have yet to get hold of a hard copy for the year. Boy was I disappointed to find this sorry excuse of a program guide. It’s a tri-fold brochure, effectively two page display, very light on […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

As requested, here is his response, reposted here in full: Vince, Touché! Your editorial, “Politics and Social […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
If you haven’t noticed, the U.S. Space & Rocket Center has been getting into Social Media in a much bigger way than in years past. I dare say they’re beginning to embrace it. I might even go out on a limb and state that the powers-that-be might have figured out that it’s savvy business sense […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Planning for the 3rd Annual Space Camp Hall of Fame Ceremony is currently underway and it looks like it’s finally going to be what I always hoped for. Namely, a fun, relatively casual affair with good food, good music, and good Space Camp company, with little concern for superficial formalities. Don’t get me wrong. I […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The dinner was great, and the first alumni session is going WONDERFULLY. Area 51 just happened. This was my first time on the new course! It is excellent. The old one was great and this one is even better! But now I have to get back into the thick of it! More to come later!
It’s 2007! This is destined to be a very exciting year for Space Camp. The 25th year is upon us. I look forward to its offerings. Happy New Year to all!
So I’m watching this cheesy movie from 1989 called “Beyond the Stars.” It’s a movie where Christian Slater wants to be an astronaut, and throughout the movie they keep talking about NASA and what not, but they keep mentioning Huntsville. Later in the film, they go to MSFC and The Space & Rocket Center! Martin […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

VonT is Well

While it’s certainly true that some have had there lives absolutely devastated from the tornadoes, most of us are just bored. Thankfully, water and sewage services were never interrupted, and […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
