We also provide a chat room about aviation and space. This chat room is intended for the aviation and space enthusiast and allows for an unlimited number of simultaneous users. All we ask is that the conversations within our chat room stay within the realm of aviation and space, and related topics.
Here at Aviation News, you will find the most frequently updated aviation news on the Internet. These posts come from an amalgamation of relevant RSS news feeds and they will be updated at least twice per day.
The American aviation and space enthusiasts lives in an exciting time. America is on the threshold of new era of space exploration. Both man and machine will be involved in this new era of exploration. Space tourism is becoming a reality. Active space ports are currently expected to exist in New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, Wisconsin, and of course Florida.
It now appears that the China Space Program will become NASA’s new and welcome competitor. Given that NASA has been sluggish in terms of a real and honest attempt to send man beyond low earth orbit, this competition from China is a needed shot in the arm for NASA. As NASA gears up for the new space race, our Aviation News journal will be here to cover it.
For the first time in human history, NASA will not be the only player within the United States when it comes to putting man into space. Burt Rutan, Sir Richard Branson, Anousheh Ansari, Paul Allen, Peter Diamandis, and many others are pioneers at the forefront of this amazing development. Aviation News will be following the exciting activities of these and other space pioneers, looking for technology breakthroughs, events, and new developments.
Here at Aviation News, you will find an amalgamation of aviation news mixed with significant space news. Selection of RSS feeds will be based on what we feel would be the most interesting to the aviation and space enthusiast. So whether you are a pilot who flys for a living, a recreational pilot who flys only on weekends, an individual who works in the aerospace industry, or simply someone who has an interest in aviation and space, Aviation News should satisfy your need for relevant information.
Aviation News will be here to cover all significant news from the world of aerospace. Aviation news from all points of the globe, not just the United States, will be presented. If it is significant you will find it here.
