Specifically,
the production of materials in LEO. I'm a grad student at MIT, and my thesis
work will be on the effects of gravity on the processing of large single

With launch prices coming down over the next few years, there might be some
commercial activity in this area.>>
I'm a geologist by occupation, NSS member and a
long-time spaceflight enthusiast. Ever since I watched
John Glenn's Mercury-Atlas lift off on a tiny b&w tv in
my grade school's auditorium, I've wanted to go "out there".
So anything that promotes the attainment of cheap
human access to space is of interest to me. I see the
development of profitable space industries as an important
incentive for aggressive R&D efforts in the space
transportation arena.
