We may spend a lot of time talking about the larger NewSpace companies such as SpaceX, but in this episode we look at a couple of the smaller entities that are doing some amazing things with next to zero budget.

NASA has returned some beautiful videos of the shuttle attached to the ISS while ESA wants to make sure we don’t go stir crazy during our ride to Mars.

All that, a bit of Spacevidcast crazy and your questions answered on this Jun 10th, 2011 edition of Spacevidcast Live.

The Space Shuttle is retiring this year. NASA is shifting its focus to build a space industry and spur a new space enconomy rather than just run a single manned space program. Of course with this change comes some pain, and people resistant to new things. In this live show we cover ways you can participate in the ending of the Space Shuttle Program as well as why you shouldn’t fear change. The future for manned space exploration has never been brighter, we just have to illuminate the path for those who don’t see it yet.

Lockheed Martin details plans to go to Mars, well, close to Mars. China may get Space Race 2.0 going, but is that a good thing?

This is one of only 5 space shuttle missions remaining. This is the final night launch of any space shuttle mission and second to last mission for Space Shuttle Endeavour or OV-105. Very clean launch. The video is from L-11 minutes to external tank separation. There are a few glitches in this video, my apologies. Working on finding a cleaner version with the cool ascent graphics still.

Spacevidcast epic subscribers get even MORE! In addition to the above video if you have epic you can download the 1.65GB MPEG 2 file that came right off the satellite. That’s the raw 720p file, 60 frames per second at over 10Mbps! If that’s too much for your computer we have compressed it down to a much smaller 650MB h.264 HD file. Of course I couldn’t leave out the dramatic reading of the STS-130 Wikipedia article. That audio is also available for epic subscribers. Don’t have epic! Grab it now for as little as $8.33 a month!
