We celebrated Yuri’s Night here in Ottawa at the Aviation museum and this year I was able to go along with our local rocketry group so that we could bring a bunch of rockets to show and promote the club at the same time. But there was a dismally low turnout this year. Not sure why, but I hope it was not because space was no longer cool. Ironically the panel discussion that went along with the event did come to the topic of how funding could be improved if the industry did a better job of promoting space. Well at least I had a lot fun and I think its all cool.
