All four of these flights will culminate in the deployment of the first full-scale BA 330 prototype.
"Michael "Mike" Gold" is the pen-name of Jewish American writer "Itzok Isaac Granich". A lifelong CPUSA/communist, Gold was a novelist and literary critic. His semi-autobiographical novel Jews Without Money (1930) was a bestseller. During the 1930s and 1940s Gold was considered the preeminent author and editor of U.S. proletarian literature.

The purpose of this mission is to demonstrate and validate the core technology, such as the inflation process, as well as the durability and longevity of the vehicle when actually exposed to the on-orbit environment for a period of years.
Give my guys credit, they didn't quit. They didn't die. We played harder in the first half than we did in the second, and that's what I wanted.
Our hopes and best wishes are with SpaceX. We appreciate what they are trying to accomplish, both from a technological as well as a financial perspective.
Frankly, you hear a lot of talk about inflatables. People use them in PowerPoint charts…but that only takes you so far. There is no real data in regard to how an inflatable habitat is going to function in space. We expect to learn a lot from these initial Genesis launches, in regard to our basic engineering and the concept as a whole.
Development is going along quite well. We are on schedule and expect to remain so.
We're expanding. One of the most difficult aspects of the aerospace field is quality people. It is difficult to identify, hire and find good engineers. The aerospace workforce is becoming a concern.
I don't think there's an image problem or a misperception. I think there's just a flat-out unfamiliarity.
I've been pleasantly surprised by the credibility, seriousness, and capabilities shown by these entities.
