HobbySpace - Home
This pioneering site links space endeavors to broad public interests. Increasingly, its profiling of “alt-space” goals and progress is blazing a trail in that area too. Lindsey’s “Tenants” below provide the best window into his motivations.
“HobbySpace Tenants: * The development of space will only be successful when the general public becomes directly involved. * Incremental, step-by-small-step development can achieve permanent human settlement. * Private, commercial entrepreneurial enterprises can make most of these steps. * Small, niche markets can be sufficient to support those companies.”
Commercial Space Wiki
This wiki site is managed by Ken Davidian who has a professional government-based focus on the NewSpace/entrepreneurial space market including several commercial space activities he supported associated with NASA, his former employer. He brings special value to this site because he is now working as the Encourage, Facilitate & Promote Lead in the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation. He is thus associated with FAA oversight and facilitation of the emerging suborbital personal spaceflight market. He is also aligned with an informal AIAA-based Commercial Space Group who are advocates for this market and he is linked to several student groups working in this area, as well. Davidian does an audio walkthrough of this site during an interview with David Livingston of The Space Show.
