There is a tremendous amount to learn right now if you are one who organizes or promotes events.
Compare what occurred on this planet on April 12, when thousands of parties were held covering every continent, school lesson plans established, and incredible, informative Web sites established - including a celebratory movie - for the celebration of Yuri Gagarin's achievements ... versus what is happening for the anniversary of Alan Shepard's flight. As I wrote a few months ago here, public relations professionals and event promoters should look at what yurisnight.net accomplished with their site. Media kits ... videos ... logos for the media ... press contact info ... VERY impressive. There's time for "us" to develop such resources for ARISSat-1's deployment ... or for the AMSAT-Fox project. Creating those media materials didn't cost the yurisnight.net folks a bundle. But the results can only HELP AMSAT and ARISS worldwide. We have the talent pool to do it ...
