Scientific American: Making Money in Space

[Mark Reiff <markreiff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FYI,

"THE BEST USE OF SPACE - Making Money in Space"
Scientific American
<http://www.sciam.com/1999/0399space/0399alpert.html>

: Some of these companies are trying to develop low-cost launch
vehicles;
: others are planning lunar and deep-space missions intended to turn a
: profit.  What they all share is a strict allegiance to the bottom
line.
: Their oft- repeated motto is: "To go to space to stay, we have to make
: space pay."

: In the near future the best way to make money in space may be to take
: paying passengers there.

"I think we are all trying too hard to push space
versus finding the pulls that attract people and their money."
"The heavens reward great deeds, not excuses."
