We all thank you, Matthew!

If you’re here, that must mean that hab1.com is now pointing to its new home!
Either that, or you just got here (for the time being) by going to hab1.vazzo.com
Either way, welcome! I even think I got all of the bugs worked out! How about that?!
Enjoy!
It seems as if the USSRC has installed a web cam in Rocket Park! And it’s a pretty good one, at that!
The thing updates in real time so you can even see visitors and campers touring the park!
Additionally, they are in the process of moving the Saturn V for restoration…check out the crane!
Matthew Danner has again updated his blog detailing more adventures from Space Camp Turkey!
Go take a look.
From his most recent update:
Three new counselors have arrived: Connie, Jon and Audrey. Connie arrived a little over a week ago, Audrey arrived this week and Jon just arrived today. Connie is from California, Jon is from Canada and Audrey is from California. Audrey and Connie are former Space Camp California Counselors.
It was exactly one year ago today that, having completed training, I became a U.S. Space Academy Counselor. That was truly a great day.
*sigh*
The Space & Rocket Center has had posted online their 2004 annual report.
It’s pretty interesting, so I wanted to make sure everyone who came by here had the opportunity to view it. It has some pretty interesting data. Revenue reports, expenses, etc. It also contains a mention of parties from Germany, Mexico, Australia, Malaysia, and Korea interested in becoming Space Camp licensees!
Additionally, scattered throughout the report are blurbs on great alumni doing great things. Included among them, of course, is our first astronaut alumnus, Dottie Metcalf-Lindenburger!
In addition to Space Camp Turkey looking for two more counselors, our very own Matthew Danner has updated his blog twice since I last mentioned it.
Go have a look (especially if you’re thinking about joining the ranks as a counselor at Space Camp Turkey)!
From his most recent update:
A lot has happened since I last wrote. I have finished training and received my first team last week. It was a two day program called OSA, Outer Space Adventure I think. They were a GREAT group of kids and so much fun. It was really odd being on the other side of things, being the counselor instead of the camper, but was really fun.
Space Camp Turkey is still in need of two counselors: one female and one male. It’s not too late to work with a lot of great people at Space Camp and possibly influence the lives of great campers throughout the world!
If you’re interested, you should get in contact with Beth Mitchell immediately!
For some more information, you can read the job advert and see the official job description.
And if you’re considering it but are unsure of traveling all the way to Turkey, do yourself a favor and watch this video about Space Camp Turkey!
I’ve updated the HabFiles Section with another issue of Starlog Magazine. This issue is from July of 1986 and features not one but two Space Camp articles!
The first article is an account of a trip to Space Camp. It even has some (bad) photos of the old TCF!
The second article is about the movie, SpaceCamp. Enjoy!
Another busy summer season is soon to kick off at Space Camp in Huntsville! And as many new counselors currently undergo training there, others are in training at a different Space Camp. Space Camp Turkey is also gearing up for its Summer season.
Among the new hires at Space Camp Turkey is our very own Matthew Danner who has made the intrepid voyage to Space Camp Turkey to be a Space Camp counselor for the summer!
As such an adventure surely requires, Matthew has created a blog to chronicle his adventures.
Already in Turkey, Matthew has updated both his own blog as well as all of us in the HabForum!
From his most recent post:
The luggage was a couple hours behind us, but at least it got here! Everything here is really cool and everyone is amazingly nice. The kids are hilarious and treat us like celebrities asking for us to sign their hats and get in pictures with them. They are really fun. They are trying so hard to speak English!
Have a great summer, Matthew! And be sure to keep us all up-to-date as your summer progresses!
