IAC#9 - Opportunities in Public Spaceflight

The IAC is drawing to a close but there are still many people here. The technical sessions finished at lunchtime, but now there is a plenary in the main auditorium on Future Opportunities for Public Spaceflight. As well as George and Loretta (see ppst below), we have four astronauts in on the panel: Sergei Krikalev (Russia), Chiaki Mukai (Japan), Jean-François Clervoy (Canada) and Yi So-Yean

(Korea). There are aome of very interesting perspectives on what it is like to travel in space and what the likelihood of it is for private citizens in the future.
