I neglected to mention earlier this month a new blog, Poli-Space Peer Review. Ryan Zelnio provides some synopses and commentary about space policy papers published in peer-reviewed journals, like Space Policy, as well as some related pieces. This is particularly useful for those of us without regular access to some of these journals. Some links to articles about Robert Joseph’s speech about the new national space policy at the National Press Club yesterday afternoon: The AP account of the speech comes first, because it’s timestamped at 1:58 pm Wednesday, two minutes before Joseph’s talk started. (Presumably the AP’s Barry Schweid got an advance copy of speech, and the […] On Wednesday afternoon Robert Joseph, Under Secretary for Arms Control and International Security at the State Department, gave a speech at the National Press Club about the new national space policy, the first time a senior administration official has spoken about the policy on the record since the policy’s release over two months ago. Nor […] In his blog at wired.com, noted sci-fi “cyperpunk” author Bruce Sterling reprints an email alert he apparently received earlier this week from The Planetary Society. “NASA Science Situation More Dire Than We Thought!” reads the subject line of the message, which begins with this statement: “The disastrous anti-science, anti-exploration agenda being foisted on NASA and […] More than two months after the Bush Administration released the new national space policy, an administration official will give an on-the-record speech about the policy. Robert Joseph, Under Secretary for Arms Control and International Security at the State Department, will speak about the policy at a Marshall Institute event Wednesday afternoon. Joseph “will discuss the […] I have to admit that I was a little surprised at the level of media attention NASA’s lunar exploration announcement Monday received, since it had been clear since the beginning of the Vision that part of the overall plan included establishing a base of some kind on the Moon. That coverage included front-page articles by […] Last month I noted here that the Coalition for Space Exploration had created a web site to help support the political activities of space supporters. It turns out the site had not yet been officially opened for business (although it was being shown to the public at the X Prize Cup in New Mexico in […] When Boeing and Lockheed Martin jointly announced the formation of the United Launch Alliance (ULA) 19 months ago, they noted that they believed that the deal would close by the end of the year. They were right—so long as they’re not specific about what year. Today the ULA deal finally closed, as the joint venture […] The British government has tended to be disdainful of space exploration and human spaceflight over the years, focusing its ESA contributions and its own national space agency, the BNSC, on earth and space sciences as well as commercial applications. However, the UK now seems willing to take on at least a small role in the […] G. Madhavan Nair seems to think so. Nair, the chairman of the Indian space agency ISRO, told attendees of an Indian Law Institute seminar that “International Space Law” is losing its relevance because of new developments, such as orbital debris and space weaponization. The space law he refers to is the series of treaties anchored […] |
