Talks
Through compelling first-hand stories and unscripted photographs, my presentations are designed to both engage and reveal my experiences within the micro-cultures of human and robotic space exploration.
Since the publication of Infinite Worlds, I have made presentations at national museums of flight, science, art and at NASA spaceflight centers. Among them have been the Museum of Flight is Seattle, WA, the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, the Chicago Museum of Science & Industry, the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in New York and NASA's Goddard and Kennedy Space Flight Centers.
