Note:  this page features my NewSpace industry speaking and interviews.  Please contact me if you need samples of my business and IT career speaking and presentations.

Need a stimulating speaker with a topic beyond the ordinary?

I have been informing audiences about space exploration, settlement, and development since 1981, and some of my most frequently requested topics include:

• New space industries and jobs being created by entrepreneurs
• Commercial space vehicles, orbiting hotels and gas stations (yes!), and more
• Should the Moon and asteroids be commercially developed?
• What can business leaders learn from President Kennedy's lunar landing declaration?
• NASA has hindered the human migration into space. What happened after Apollo?
• Is it legal to own land on the Moon, or an entire asteroid? How will this be regulated?
• How is space essential to our prosperity?
• Who enforces what laws in space?

Fortunately, nobody has asked me to explain why it's so hard to find a parking space even though the Universe is expanding (Ok, I borrowed this from Woody Allen).
