This Week in Space 64
The Original Space Buccaneer
Charles Miller and the New Space Age
You may not have heard of Charles Miller, but you should have. He was an early proponent of commercial spaceflight and was instrumental in making it part of NASA's mandate in 1998. He was a senior advisor to NASA on the topic for three years and, both before and after, a powerful proponent as a private citizen, starting a number of space advocacy groups. He recently founded Lynk, a company that connects cell phones to satellites worldwide with their own proprietary satellites. In short, he's one of the original Space Buccaneers and one of the few non-billionaires instrumental in creating the new space age.
