SPACEFEST 2007 is over, there were three days of lectures about Space, lots of Astronauts to sign autographs and take pictures with and of. Along with lots of Vendors and information booths.
For those that missed it, you missed a good time.
Special Local Space Events:
=======================================
LepreCon39
Further Information when available.
See http://www.leprecon.org/
=======================================
TELEPRECENSE REMOTE CONTROL RACES
(Still on going planning for Races.)
The Moon Society Phoenix is still working on the Teleprecense Remote Control races.
Check this blog for details as they develop.
We are still discussing set-ups, rules, equipment and sponsorship rules at this time and it appears that the races wont occur until sometime in the late winter or early spring.
All races will be open to all comers, however, judging maybe bases on age and type (cost) of RV Car. If you prefer to buy your own car and practice for the races, then you will need a three (3) channel RC Car that can be purchased at Walmart, Target or another store. You will need a minature TV camera, a transmitter, a receiver and a device to display the picture from the Car so that you can practice driving the Car by use of the TV System only.
In the talking stages are basic racing, advanced races, and the Lunar Challenge, race heats may be run against the clock and/or one on one or more.
If you have comments and suggestions please make your comments to this blog or send them to me at portercd@msn.com Subject RC Racing.
Demonstrations of the Race Cars will be available at CopperCon32 at the Moon Society Outreach Table.

Meeting with all 15 Apollo Astronauts was great, as well as all the lectures, all the space information and free materials, the Space Art was out of this world, the banquet and etc.. with the Astronauts, and other notable people in the space industry was also great!
Just remember who told you about it, or reminded you - me!
