The evening's guest was Space Program Expert Joe Lennox. Mr Lennox is a life long enthusiast of NASA and the space program and has written a book based on his love affair with his hobby: VISION FOR SPACE: THE WINDING JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE AND THE SPACE PROGRAM AS SEEN BY AN ORDINARY JOE.

Although Mr Lennox has spoken before adult groups, most of his talks are given at elementary schools. The upside of this is that he had a snappy power point presentation and a lot of visual aids which were quite useful in illustrating particular points. The downside was that some of our more space tech savvy members felt that his presentation was a bit simplistic. For me, the coolest part of the evening was being able to handle one of the damaged tiles from a space shuttle. His talk went over well with most of the group.
