This this past Labor Day weekend at the CopperCon30 Convention the Moon Society Phoenix Members presented several Panels.
Don presented one panel on Comercial Space and another on Settling the Moon. Both Panels were full of interesting information and ideas on how to use Space on a budget including settling the Moon. Don and Patti colaborated on several panels on writing and publishing. They also through a launch party for a couple of authors and they also sold copies of their clients books and their books in the Dealer's Room. Also, both are excellent writers and their stories always please the reader and leave them wanting more.
Chuck's presention on the Space Based Solar Power Satellite was cancelled due to circumstances beyond his control. This panel was to include new material and the clarification of the previous material.
I did three panels on Disasters, one "Disasters Strikes" will be a teaching session on how to survive a Disaster. The other two are about senarios on the Mega Disasters of Science Fiction and Prediction.Weston Osche (pronounced Oaks) helped with on the "Disaster Strikes" panel. Weston was one of the Author Guests of Honor.
If we missed you at the Con we will be at the LepreCon37 and the CopperCon31 Cons in 2011.Come and enjoy the Cons and the presentations that will be available at the Cons on various topics along with costuming and other items.

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.
