Freeman Dyson is the kind of 90 year old we could all aspire to be. Agile, articulate, funny, razor sharp, he seems to go instantly to the heart of any topic, and his topics are many.
At Tuesday morning’s opening session at the Arthur C. Clarke Center for the Human Imagination, Dyson laid out his closely reasoned guesses about humanity’s activities in space in both near and long term timescales.
For next 50 years or so, the economics and politics and space will dictate small, inexpensive, increasingly miniaturized spacecraft on missions to explore, map, and generally sort out the solar system, locate a greater percentage of the small, undiscovered bodies of the solar system rich in ice and scarce metals or posing a threat. Not much human exploration and no colonization... Delete the scoop?

Space is central to our economy in two fundamental ways: 1) It provides scientific, commercial, military and government platforms (satellites, space stations, rockets, suborbital transportation) that support a variety of industries, and 2) space industry companies buy the products and services of non-space companies.
This event combines an educational symposium with an entrepreneur investment summit. In the morning, you will learn about the commercial suborbital spaceflight industry and the benefits it can provide to North Carolina’s nanobiotechnology and defense industries. The afternoon will feature pitches from entrepreneurs seeking investment capital and partnerships. Through these pitches, they will also demonstrate how space is a driver of creative business ideas that may be of use to your company. Delete the scoop?

Dear Colleagues:
In the wake of the mandatory, across-the-board reductions in the Federal budget—termed “sequestration”—that went into effect on 1 March 2013, The White House Office of Management and Budget issued a set of guidelines for operations under sequestration to all Federal Agencies.
In accordance with those guidelines, on 13 March NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden issued a memo detailing a series of new policies that the Agency is implementing in response to sequestration.
Among those policies are strict new limits on travel and conference participation by NASA employees and contractors. While the full impact of these new restrictions is yet to be determined, it is clear that they are sufficiently severe that they will prevent us from holding a meeting of the Exoplanet Exploration Program Analysis Group (ExoPAG) outside of the continental United States...
