We are in an exciting time in terms of aerospace technological development. Space tourism companies are gearing up and currently are competing for customers. It appears now that space tourism is moving away from the domain of science fiction and is in the process of becoming real science.
The “Golden Age of Aviation” was the two decades between the great world wars. This was the time of the roaring 1920’s and the fabulous 1930’s. I believe we are at the gates of the golden age of space exploration. Aviation and space enthusiasts need a way to keep up with this rapidly developing area. Hence the need for this news journal.
As space exploration technology develops, Aviation and Space News will be at the forefront in terms of bringing exciting news to the space and aviation enthusiast. During Space Shuttle lift-offs and other significant events such as space walks and space station activity, I highly recommend NASA Television. The Yahoo link on this NASA TV page seems to produce the best quality. This is NASA TV via your Internet connection.
The following is some interesting videos followed by the most current aviation and space news. Book mark this page and come back frequently to read about current aviation and space events, activity, and anything that has to do with aerospace..
