I don't think it's made clear to students entering university how they can get into the space sector. It's never too hard to cross train though. Anyone looking to enter the industry can study for a science or engineering degree with a university suc…

Scaled Composites re-launched their website in February and they've now got a new jobs page. Currently 10 vacancies listed. I've also built a list of all current space industry vacancies I can find worldwide, see: JP Space Jobs. It seems to me there…

I'm so excited that I found this group, as I believe networking is the key to finding about some of the best (unadvertised) positions out there. My passion is aerospace software testing and I look forward to sharing any positions I come across (and…

IEEE Spectrum June 2009 article: "The Investor's Guide To Space"

This article was published earlier this summer as a part of Spectrum's issue "Special Report: Why Mars? Why Now?"

http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/aerospace/space-flight/the-investors-guide-to-space/1

It contains new analysis on the likely impact of emerging global carbon monitoring, mitigation and trading markets on the space industry.

The hyped-up subtitle "How to make profits that are out of this world" was added by the editor...to my chagrin...

Hay
We have a new link.
www.LivingInSpace.ca
Take a look.

You may be a candidate for our team in the years to come.
We have a satellite delivery system idea that produces zero space junk.
Each launch lifts six satellites and a 200 passenger landing vehicle to share the cost.
After six launches we attach the used rocket hardware, remove the tanks and reattach them to the outside, clean and renovate, place the 36 satellite and open for rent.
Would you like to see what we will rent as a resort with five levels of artificial gravity?
We can walk you through 1 of the 6 used rockets.

Lets imagine a $20,000,000 launch.
Each of the 200 passengers pays $40,000.
Each satellite pays $2,000,000

I hear, we should leave this nest we call Earth, evolve past this barrier.
Tasha9503 is tomorrow, designed with 1995 technology.
As this moon race continues I would like to ask every one to help us build these transport vehicles to take several crews to the Moon, Mars, beyond and back.
I will not suggest any human leave the protection of this infrastructure after passing the Van Allan Belt, but you can enter any orbit around our sun.
It is a new rocket design that produces no space junk.
Use the six robotic arms to collect space junk in preparation for mining the Asteroid Belt.
Tasha9503 will be owned buy the people, initially used as HotelsInSpace, resorts.
People in China, Brazil, Argentina, Etc. Congo, Guinea, Namibia, etc. Sahara, Tunisia, USA, Antarctica, Canada, etc. will soon be able to own the infrastructure in orbit.
The day we collect rent we will no longer be for sale.
In 1988 we started looking for all the reasons we can not move to space.
7 years we collected the sciences that say we can.
This infrastructure includes five levels of artificial gravity to remove the physical degeneration that prolonged exposure to zero-g brings.
It is a place for our children to live if an asteroid or a commit etc, hits earth or global warming makes Earth uninhabitable by humans.
Launch costs, oxygen and water purification, food and sewage, Maintenance, Reproduction.
We found the solutions to all the stoppers and slow me downs and lowered the cost.
We still ask the world why they think we can not build these HotelsInSpace if funds were available?
If we can pass the Van Allan Belt, we can pass the Moon, Mars and beyond.
Each HotelsInSpace includes five levels of Artificial Gravity, 12 staff units, 72 units with sleeping for three for rent, six cafeterias, six separate zero gravity sections, internet connection to the world and access to the entire HotelsInSpace.
This is the place where many people can try ZeroGravitySex.
Depending on other’s transportation facilities, we feel any time under one week per year will not be usable, unused time accumulates.
In 2009 we showed the world our answers to why we can go.
Re design the HLV.
Lift 1,000,000 lbs of pre shaped HLV.
Re use the casings fuel tanks and software in orbit.
Lift six satellite payloads per launch.
Land a 400,000 lbs 200 passenger CRV.
Share the launch price between hundreds, effectively lowering the cost.
Attach 6 used rockets, clean, renovate and place the 36 satellites in their respective orbits.
Do it again, lifting another 1200 people, 36 satellites and building more HotelsInSpace.
Like LEGO, these pieces of Infrastructure can be attached end to end producing CitySkapes above the clouds.
Get on board? Do you want to build a 400 passenger landing vehicle? We will use our HLV to lift it.

Safety?
How many people died this month in car accidents?
How many died when swimming?
How many died in Boating accidents?
How many starved to death this month?
How many died this month.
With 120 NASA shuttle launches, less than five burned on re-entry.
Max 35 people die and 819 live to tell stories about space travel.
With 120 tasha9503 launches, if 5 burn on re-entry, that’s 1000 people die and 23000 live to tell space stories.
We also end up with 19 HotelsInSpace.
Does that answer any questions about safety and do you have any other questions?

I love the website you showed. It sounds great. We need more people investing in space travel which is the wave of the future. Have you
heard of this company called Unitel Aerospace? They have
patents on a starship that can travel instantaneously to other star
systems by quantum tunneling through higher dimensions or hyperspace. It can also
travel through time and to parallel universes. The technology is based
on back engineering of a UFO sighted by the CEO Larry Maurer. Website
is http://www.unitel-qht.com/uni/ . Check it out. I loved it. I
believe this is one of the best way to travel to the stars. Tell me what you think of this technology?Please reply.

Thanks Burton,
Looking foward to exchanging ideas and making linkages.
See you at the IAC,

Burton,

Wow! There is quite a community here! I suppose I should have looked a little closer to the different websites linked to the IASE. I'm getting myself a little better situated right now, but this is really good stuff. Large community with loads of information and tons of possibilities. A lot to be used to move forward on my business plan!

Thank you much for this eye opener!

Alexis W.
