Here is your chance to meet Dr. Tony England, the second astronaut to use

Come by the AMSAT booth Friday morning for a terrestrial encounter.
In 1985, Tony first went into space onboard the space shuttle Challenger.
During his eight-day mission, he was a NASA Mission Specialist, responsible
for conducting many of the experiments in the onboard laboratory. The
mission included a ham radio payload called SAREX, the Shuttle Amateur Radio
Experiment.
AMSAT President Rick Hambly, W2GPS will also be available at the AMSAT booth
during Tony's Friday 11:00 am - noon visit.
