As Jeff Foust notes, there hasn’t been a lot of breaking news at this conference, but he has recovered sufficiently from last night’s pistonless-pumped margarita party to put up a summary of yesterday’s sessions.

On The Air
The wireless is up in the room. For now.
George Nield of FAA-AST is talking, and describing the new rules for human spaceflight.
Here is Jeff Foust’s first post from the conference.
Still No Wireless
I’m posting this from the lobby after lunch. In theory the wireless is supposed to be up in the room Real Soon Now.
Clark Lindsey has some stuff up from the proceedings so far. And more here.
Worst.Hotel.Ever
At least for a Space Access conference. There’s no broadband in the rooms. There is a wireless connection in the lobby, from which I’m posting this. Michael Mealing is attempting to set up a wireless connection in the room in which the proceedings are occuring, so we can blog from there, but there’s a problem with the network connection to the router, and there will be no resolution before tomorrow morning. The restaurant took half an hour to take out orders, and an hour to deliver them, then screwed up the check. Not to mention that my linguini was spaghetti., and overcooked.
Other than that, everything is great. Hopefully better news on the morrow.
An Old, Bold Pilot?
I was hearing rumors of this last night through the grapevine, but some news outlets are now reporting the Scott Crossfield‘s private aircraft is missing, possibly (and even likely) with him aboard.
Personal Spaceflight
Jeff Foust has started up (yet another) new blog on personal spaceflight. He’s come up with a very creative and descriptive name for it–Personal Spaceflight.
Bookmark it. I’ll be adding it to the blogroll.
Three More Days
Clark Lindsey reminds us that the Space Access Conference starts on Thursday. Hope to see some of you there.
