Spaceq

Hi, I’m Marc Boucher and this is the SpaceQ podcast. This weeks podcast has two segments. The first is an interview with Launch Canada’s Adam Trumpour who provides an update on the Launch Canada Challenge. Of note, and subsequent to this interview, Adam told SpaceQ that the November event had to be postponed as not all the approvals could be done in time.In the second segment I speak with Lawrence Reeves the founder and leader of the Canadian Satellite Design Challenge which engages students from universities across Canada.I’ll point out that both Launch Canada and the Canadian Satellite Design Challenge are not-for profits that did not start with government, nor do they get government funding, though the Canadian Satellite Design Challenge does get in-kind government contributions and Launch Canada is likely going to get in-kind government contributions.Listen in.- Adam Trumpour, Launch Canada (Starts at 2:03)http://www.launchcanada.org/- Lawrence Reeves, Canadian Satellite Design Challenge (Starts at 13:35)
