Io Volcanism Discovery Remembered Options

Sunspot, it's great to see that picture here! It was a very difficult picture to get the rights for, in order to include it in my memoir. National Geographic did not have the rights for it, although it appeared in their January of 1980 issue. Eventually, National Geographic was given the rights on a one time basis to offer them to me. I am very glad about that!

Dave posted the url for my presentation at OCA above. I did use a Star Trek theme. Star Trek was a medium for writers to take a look at challenging issues of the time when the series was made. In a way I did the same thing for the OCA presentation. The memoir deals with some very difficult issues, as well as the remarkable world of space exploration that I call home. That, is not a difficult issue. It has taken an enormous amount of courage to come forward with the story of my life, but I have already seen the amount of good that it has done for those whose lives it has already touched.

Your forum here is probably the best there is. I contribute to the public's knowledge about space on Linda Morabito's Space Place on Facebook! I always feel that your members are doing exceptional work and with the new "photojournal" that Emily is creating, I will be working to get the word out about what goes on here!
