The Space Foundation Conference

Feedback: What did you think of this show?: 

Chris Gainor, Author of "Arrows To The Moon" was the guest on this Space Show program. Mr. Gainor described in detail the history of Avro's work, their Arrow, the political decision to kill the project which severely impacted the Canadian aviation industry, and then the departure of close to 32 Avro engineers to NASA who were key to taking us to the Moon. Chris also talked about many of the engineers who did go to NASA, the work they did, the contributions they made even to this day regarding our space program. We also spoke about the Canadian space program, space education and science funding in Canada and much more. His book is exceptional and I urge all of you to buy and read it. He documents this important part of history very well and he will certainly return to The Space Show with his future space history books and works now in progress. You can email your comments and questions to Chris Gainor at cgainor@shaw.ca.
