Beginning today, those looking for information on the key players involved with the $90 billion satellite and space marketplace will be able to refer to an old 'friend.' During a meeting at NASA Headquarters, the new, 7th edition of the 'North American Space Directory' was officially released. Completely updated and revised, this indispensable reference offers the most current, detailed profiles on more than 1500 commercial, government, and academic institutions. From 1993 to 1999, the predecessor of this reference, the 'U.S. Space Directory' was often considered the bible of the space industry and a vital reference for anyone involved with satellites, launch vehicles, ground station equipment and operations, satellite communications and broadcasting, space systems R&D, GPS equipment and positioning services, remote sensing applications, microgravity, and space tourism. According to Scott Sacknoff, president of SpaceBusiness.com, "In talking with our customers we learned that even with the Internet, they prefer a targeted print reference that they can just pull off the shelf. It saves them time, and therefore, their companies save money." Expanded to cover both U.S. and Canadian institutions, its 304 pages include a special facts and figures section providing details on government space expenditures, top NASA and DoD contractors, launch statistics and forecasts, details on spectrum allocations, and background into the Canadian space program. Heavily indexed and cross-referenced, industry and government executives from around world have called this reference 'a vital resource' and one that is 'not just purchased but used regularly.' The American Library Association in 'Booklist' called this directory, " ... A valuable resource for engineers, business executives, sales professionals, job searchers and students" and recommended that "large public libraries and academic libraries supporting business or engineering programs will want to purchase." The '2004 North American Space Directory' is available for purchase via the bookstore at SpaceBusiness.com or by calling +1 (703) 524-2766. The cost is $275.00 (plus tax in MD and S/H).
