On Tuesday, March 26 at 7:00 pm, the Los Angles chapter of the L5 Society
(OASIS) will be hosting a presentation by Richard Rassmussen in the Kinsey
Auditorium of the California Museum of Science and Industry.

Richard Rassmussen is the president of Space Vector Corporation, the private
firm which provided the engines for the first private space launch.  The
company is currently interested in exporting rocket technology on the
international market.

The presentation will focus on bringing the cost of transportation to Earth
orbit low enough so that private firms may launch their own payloads.

The meeting is open to the public and the admission is free.
