π The Future of Space video podcast is a candid and informal conversation, between myself and leaders, investors, innovators, educators, celebrities, movers, and shakers that are shaping the future of humankind into outer space. Like how two friends would chat and philosophe. With just one thing missing, a glass of wine! π
Today's guest is Spaceport America's Public Relation Coordinator, Alice Carruth. Alice and I talk about why it matters to go to space, the human story of going to space, the history of Spaceport America, how she got from England to New Mexico, the future of Spaceport America, the global network of spaceports, education, children, STEM, and Spaceport America's Cup
