November Programming:
A Visit from NM Space Historian Loretta Hall!
Local author (and former Bubonicon science speaker) Loretta Hall will be talking to us (with visual aids) about her latest non-fiction astro-effort, Space Pioneers: In Their Own Words, which was released this past June.
In her book, “Ninety space pioneers describe their experiences while working on space research and exploration from the 1940s through the space shuttle program. Some of these men and women were well known as astronauts or members of Mission Control for Apollo flights to the Moon, and some were minor players in the programs-people like lab technicians, weather forecasters, welders, and helicopter pilots who supported rocket tests. Their stories disclose events and behind-the-scenes details available nowhere else. They reveal the human experiences of an era that extended from the launch of this planet’s first ‘artificial moon’ to routine shuttle missions carrying people and supplies between Earth and the International Space Station.”
