Author and historian Robert Zimmerman spoke about space-related issues and also shared his contention that there isn't enough evidence to confirm that global warming is happening. We don't have enough data over long-term cycles to draw any definitive conclusions about the Earth's upcoming climate, he maintained.
He touched on space tourism which he said the Russians are continuing to develop and private space ventures, such as Amazon's Jeff Bezos, who is quietly building a spaceport(1) in Texas.
Zimmerman, whose next book will be about Hubble, said the space telescope has been one of the most significant scientific instruments, giving people a completely new perspective of the universe. The previously unseen clarity of its images had a genuine cultural impact, he noted. If the next Shuttle missions go smoothly, he is hopeful that a repair mission tentatively scheduled for Dec. 2007 will go forward, and keep Hubble running for another decade.
