It turned out there was definitely room for a weekly newspaper (now a monthly magazine in a hard copy, although daily online) to cover the space community - military, civil, commercial, technology, government, and all the rest. It's done a terrific job of ceverage, remained balanced, and even quoted me and printed a couple of op-eds from me (how classy can you get)? They've kept it pretty nonpartisan in anindustry which has ferocious partisans (put the ULA fans and the SpaceX fans in a paintball game, and its possible no one will come out alive) and open to all points of view.
I've had sucsriptions whenever I could afford them and kept up online, via work, etc. whenever I couldn't. They do special issues for the Space Symposium and the Conference on Small Satellites, other special events, and did a good job on the Apollo 11 anniversary, although they normally leave history to other publications, like QUEST (which also publishes me now and then).
Happy birthday, and keep doing a great job!
