Commercial Space Idol
Alan Boyle has an update on NASA's first round picks for COTS, the $500 million space contracts competition he compares with ever-hot American Idol. And it's true, only the most talented, motivated, fearless, young, and sexy commercial space companies make the cut.
SLP congratulates the finalists, Spacehab, Rocketplane Kistler, SpaceX, t/Space, (consortium includes AirLaunch, Constellation Services International, Orion Propulsion, Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute and RedZone Robotics, Universal Space Lines and Scaled Composites), SpaceDev and Andrews Space.
Yes, but can they sing?
