May 12 Senate Commerce Full Hearing Set

The U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation will conduct a full committee hearing on the future of U.S. human space flight on May 12, 2010, 2:30 PM, Russell Senate Office Building - 253 in Washington, D.C. It will be webcast.

MSNBC space journalist Alan Boyle says 'the word' is that it will be a most interesting hearing. There could be glimpses of a grand compromise in the works. Hopefully, many of the Senators with commercial space interests will show-up for the hearing and provide a measure of support for the president's space policy.
