Conference papers and public lectures on space archaeology

I had to update my CV this morning, and added in some of my recent presentations on space heritage and archaeology. Here is a (far from comprehensive) list from the last few years.

Sadly, I've only written a few of these up yet. Oh how fabulous it would be to have a life where all one was required to do was research and write.

(And eat little cakes beautifully iced with a nice cup of tea. My esteemed colleague Dr Lynley Wallis has gone cake mad since the Sputnik cakes and bakes every few days, it seems).

  2. Steve, you are a true friend to space archaeology. Your wiki is an excellent source for all kinds of good space stuff. Plus it makes me feel a bit important, which is sustaining when the grind of academic teaching becomes too much.
