Congratulations on this milestone - and thank you, Robert, for all you do here to keep the subjects interesting and the discussions civil. You are a friend to the space realm, a friend to all of us here, and a wonderful ambassador for the hobby. Here's to many, many more years. |

It's been of immense value, in terms of knowledge gathering, and especially of friendships. The critical element for me however has been dealing with honest people and a moderator who never seems to rest. Staggering effort Robert. |

I really don't know how I can put into words how much cS means to me personally. Since my own space firm has no website, catalog, or social media contact, probably the majority of newcomers have been/are clients/customers/friends of SpaceCoast Cover Service as a direct result of Robert's worldwide website of space news, history, and memorabilia collecting...the very best in the industry! Thank you, Robert, for nearly 20 years of operating cS in all areas of the space community. You've made my work in promoting SCCS and expressing my enthusiam and passion for space exploration much easier than I could ever accomplish. Thank you so much my space collecting friend. From one space enthusiast to another, Robert, keep up the fine work and here's hoping for another highly successful 20+ years more.

Well, twenty years on I can say that my fascination with the space race proved to be life changing, in more ways than one; cS was instrumental in all that.Cheers Robert. |

Thank you Robert, for collectSPACE... It is clearly the best website for spaceflight aficionados and for spaceflight history, not to mention all of the technical reference information that we get access to. I know of no other spaceflight website that has such a wide scope....Congratulations again!!! |
