Space tourism on CNBC?

12.15.06

I got a call over the lunch hour from someone who said that CNBC, the financial news cable network, was providing some coverage today about space tourism. It wasn’t clear whether it was an isolated segment or a recurring feature today; apparently one segment was about Benson Space Company (which would make sense given the news yesterday that it was hiring former astronaut Hoot Gibson). I don’t have access to CNBC during the day, and I couldn’t find anything on the subject on the network’s web site, so take this with a grain of salt…

Our business-news brethren say this report is on the schedule, and if/when it airs we’ll aim to get it on the MSNBC.com site.

The New Space Race at MSNBC.com has the CNBC video here http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16229923/
