“USST Sets Goal For Elevator 2010”

USST gets some hometown press coverage here.

And, from their Website news tab, we learn that, among other things, the USST team has received official approval from the FAA to operate their Climber’s laser and that they appeared on a local TV show (CTV’s News at Noon) on Monday, September 10th.
