This Wednesday’s issue of the Capitol Hill newspaper The Hill includes a full-page article about space tourism and the regulatory issues associated with it. What’s interesting about the article is that, in the print edition, it is included in the middle of a special section on transportation issues, alongside articles about Amtrak, a highway bill, and public transportation. The article isn’t too bad, although it does contain a minor error: it refers to the “Congressional Space Act of 2003″, introduced last October, as HR 3752. In fact, the “Commercial Space Act of 2003″ was HR 3245, but has been superceded by the “Commercial Space Launch Amendments Act of 2004″, which is HR 3752.
