Advisory Board Membership Requirements and Expectations
The Advisory Board helps The Space Show grow and develop. To that end, it seeks people actively engaged with the show, and creates an ongoing conversation with them about the show's needs. Members are sought who:
• Take part in shows with questions, comments, guest suggestions, programming ideas and feedback.
• Are regular listeners, thus having a sense of the ongoing discussions that occur through it, and what matters to its audience.
• Have a broad interest in space and the space industry. The Space Show covers all topics and perspectives so members need to see the big picture of how it serves the whole community.
• Have demonstrated a commitment to The Space Show via a minimum $100 annual donation.
The members of the Advisory Board shall be shown here once the reconstituted board has been assembled. The conduct of Board business is informal and ongoing to allow flexibility in participation and timely action. There are no anticipated formal or informal group meetings. Advisory Board members will have regular and frequent contact with Dr. Livingston.
To apply for membership, please contact Dr. Livingston at drspace@thespaceshow.com or david@onegiantleapfoundation.org.
Thank you
