Testimonials 2012

“We made a commitment to display our Lynx Spacecraft for the first time in full scale in the United States here and it’s turned out wonderfully...we had a lot of activity, a lot of great people, a lot of good questions and some very good business contacts”                                                                                                                               --Andrew Nelson, Chief Operating Officer, XCOR AEROSPACE

“Congratulations on a very successful first edition of Spacecraft Technology Expo & Conference”                       --Jose Mariano Lopez-Urdiales, Founder and CEO, zero2infinity SL

“We had success with the people that we have met, we think they are quality contacts and we have met a lot of people locally that we do business with here in the Southern California area”                                                      --John Romero, VP, Martinez & Turek

"The Expo exceeded our expectations. There was a great deal to see and a great many people to talk with. It was a networker's paradise. And of course, I learned a tremendous amount about several fantastic new space activities, and a few I'd only heard about. I saw cool hardware and met the people actually doing the work. It was great. See you in Long Beach next year!"

--Bill Nye the Science Guy, CEO, The Planetary Society

“With prime contractors like SpaceX or Boeing, Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, a local show in Southern California allows engineers to get out of the office and interact”                                                                             --Mike MacBrair, Program Manager for Environmental Connectors Space & Launch, GLENAIR

 “I originally thought the Expo would simply be a great place to pick up some interviews for our radio show and podcast.  It turned out to be much more!  We had lots of interested visitors at our Planetary Society booth, and many of these individuals became members of the Society. We look forward to being on the floor again next year.”
