Former astronaut, Dr. Thomas D. Jones, was a guest on Radio Active Thursday October 2, 2008. Jones flew on four shuttle missions that included 3 spacewalks and work on the International Space Station.
According to Jones, China's recent space activity and the retirement of our space shuttle are indicators that "the United States is still the leader in space science, but no longer the leader in space flight."
Jones will visit Coalwood West Virginia this weekend for the annual "October Skies" festival. He'll appear with Homer Hickham, NASA engineer, author, and founder of the festival.
The hour long Radio Active airs every weekday on WHIS (1440 AM) at 9:06 am.
