I am thrilled to finally be able to share that I'll be speaking at Space Center Houston on Saturday, March 5th. If it’s possible I'd love to see some friendly faces in the audience. This will be the first (but hopefully not the last) time I've been to Houston and Johnson Space Center. |

That's great Tim and wish I was in the Houston area to hear your presentation. Have you done similar talks on the Florida Space Coast as I am sure the American Space Museum would love to have you? |

Tim, looking forward to seeing you again and hearing your presentation. (We first met a few years back at The Space Store in Cocoa, FL) At that time, you were working with Brett Anderson to prepare the store for its grand opening, a couple of weeks later. I dropped by, purchased a couple of items, and enjoyed an interesting and informative conversation with you about our common interest in space.We had already planned on being in Beaumont this coming weekend for the RV show so we will try to tweak our schedule a bit and head on down the road another 75 miles to Space Center Houston. |
