I hate asking this as the ASF Space Rendezvous is already such a fantastic event but will the autograph stands be back this year? It's a great way for those of us who can't make the trip to Florida to get involved and excited and an excellent way to raise funds for the foundation. I have a book that I would love to add every listed guests autograph to!Also I’d love to do the the cocktail mixing online but if it started at say 20:00 in Florida that would be 01:00 in Ireland, and I guarantee that if my friends and I came together to celebrate the cocktail event online we would likely be incapacitated and completely incapable of mixing cocktails at 1am. 😂 |

I see that the date of Astronaut Hall of Fame induction ceremony and the ASF gala in Florida coincides with the date of the Legacy of Apollo celebration in San Diego ... on opposite sides of the country. I've already committed to participating in the ASF events, but I would have loved to be able to go to the Apollo gala as well. It seems they might not have consulted the space events calendar. |
