If you visit the 2008 Space Elevator Conference website and login, you will see the preliminary schedule for this upcoming conference.
Topics include:
- Why We Need an Elevator to Space!

If you haven’t signed up for this event, I urge you to do so now – it promises to be everything that a hard-core Space Elevator junkie could want.
And it should be a lot of fun too – only 56 more days!
(Correction: 23May08 – oops, I meant Jerome PEARSON of course, not Peterson. Thanks Michael…)
Did you happen to mean Dr. Jerome ‘Pearson’? With Peter Swan as a follow on, I can see how that would make for an easy slip… 🙂
