There is so much information now on the Internet that finding what you want can be as much by accident as by choice.
Maybe smaller bytes, more often, will be easier to chew.
I am finding that individuals do make a difference.
Who knows what you might accomplish.
This web site can take you to a lot of information about space.

About Us
SpacePolicyOnline.com provides news, information and analysis about the policy aspects of the full scope of the U.S. space program -- civil (NASA, NOAA, FAA/OCST, and other civil agencies), military (DOD and the intelligence community), and commercial -- as well as international space activities and space law. Many excellent websites already exist about NASA's space activities, but the space program is much more than NASA.
Marcia S. Smith is the founder and editor of SpacePolicyOnline.com.
She has almost four decades of experience in space policy, including 31 years at the Congressional Research Service on Capitol Hill (1975-2006), and three at the National Research Council's Space Studies Board and Aeronautics and Space Engineering Board (2006-2009).
She is the North American Editor of the journal Space Policy, and is a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), American Astronautical Society (AAS), and British Interplanetary Society (BIS). A short biography is available here.
Laura M. Delgado joined SpacePolicyOnline.com as a correspondent in September 2009. Ms. Delgado is currently pursuing an MA in International Science and Technology Policy at the George Washington University's Space Policy Institute (SPI). She is also a 2009 Harry S. Truman Scholar and a Northrop Grumman Fellow at SPI. In June 2009, she graduated Summa Cum Laude with a bachelor's degree in Political Science from the University of Puerto Rico. From 2007 to 2009, Ms. Delgado worked as a research assistant with the Department of Political Science at UPR on a project analyzing the effects of corruption on electoral behavior at the municipal level. In May 2008, Ms. Delgado became the first Puerto Rican to obtain the Lloyd V. Berkner Space Policy Internship at the Space Studies Board of the National Academies. Previously, she worked as an Intern for Development at the NAIC-Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. In 2007 Ms. Delgado interned at the Office of then-Congressman Luis Fortuño (now governor of Puerto Rico). Her research interests include international relations theory as applied to space policy, as well as space security and management issues.
