California Space Enterprise Center

My colleague Alan Tratner has asked me to play some sort of yet-to-be-determined role in the California Space Enterprise Center, a project that would develop an 100-acre parcel in Lompoc, CA (near Vandenberg Air Force Base) into a world-class attraction promoting space-related businesses, including a home for incubators for private space enterprises, educational programs, and a museum.  I’ve just written a letter of support, as follows:

To Whom It May Concern:

I have an extremely positive opinion of the effort to develop the California Space Enterprise Center, as I believe it will be a critical component in the nurturing of innovation in private enterprise in space-related business arenas, while stimulating the flow of well-educated people and new businesses into the State of California, and in the Lompoc / Vandenberg area in particular.

I’ve known Alan Tratner, one of the project’s key sponsors, for several years now, and he has consistently impressed me with his level of vision and sophistication vis-à-vis creative business concepts.  I have every belief that this initiative will represent a powerful and positive force, driving success for the region. 

 

Best regards,
