Re: New Space Entertainment business

Hi there New Martians,

Just sharing a bit of news...

Having retired from Mars Society Canada's board of directors, I am more active than ever pursuing the dream:

I've started two companies.  One is called Interplanetary Expeditions Inc., who's slogan is Exploring Research Frontiers in Planetary Science and Exploration Technology.  IPX for short.

The other is IPX Entertainment, Inc.  IPXN for short.  The slogan is Exploring Commercial Frontiers in Space Entertainment, Space Sports and Space Tourism.

Right now, IPXN is developing two television series.  One I can't tell you about, as we're looking to be providing financial backing for this project and don't yet have the rights to it.  The main one, the big one, however, I can talk to you about.  Space sports.  Imagine space tourism really taking off when sports in space can be offered.  To have a zero-gravity sport, IPXN is developing a game for the weightlessness provided by parabolic flight through the Zero Gravity Corporation.  We're going to start a sports league, called the International Parabolic Sports League, and we're going to be making a reality TV show based around it -- to select the athletes for the 8 founding teams in a draft tournament in which the player not only compete for a cash prize, but for a career in profession sports as well.

I'm always on the look-out for people to join my staff.  Right now I'm looking for moderators for my board at http://coliseum.spacechampions.com/   Please check it out.  I'm also look for programmers to help develop a private peer-2-peer network for the distribution of Space-themed entertainment -- so-called Internet video-on-demand.  Send me your resume if you have the skills.  You may also sign up for our newsletter at http://lists.spacechampions.com

Regards,
