Re: Space Camp in trouble
>Are kids into space at all any more?
Can you blame them? Space is boring today, and there isn't any real sense that it is going to change. The sense of bright optimism for the future seems to be what the "space age" was about to the early generation, and it is really tough for kids to pick up on that when even the space enthusiasts often seem pretty pessimistic today.
When the subject gets exciting again (and it isn't the government that will do it), interest will perk back up.
