Ask HN: Are You Interested in a Space Startup & Science Email Newsletter?

32 points by tectonic ↗ HN
Hey HN! I'm planning to start a short weekly email newsletter with a selection of space science updates, aerospace startup news, DIY space stuff (ground stations, cubesats, simulation software, etc.), and other geeky space content that I found interesting during the week.

Would this interest you? If so, what specific topics would you most like to hear about?

I'm planning to send out a first edition next week. If you're interested, here's a signup form: https://goo.gl/forms/uGi2AL7ELpJK86bx2

Sounds like a wonderful idea to me!

I'm interested in anything from the feasibility of manned missions to Mars (on a real timeframe) to whether it's possible to prove that the earth is round to how to achieve weightlessness/zero-g without becoming an astronaut.

Depending on focus, might even be interested in contributing (not an expert on cubesats or rocket science, but have worked for a major aerospace publisher and more recently for an ESA-funded EO startup)

I'll definitely be looking for contributors.

This sounds great, I'd love to volunteer https://github.com/17twenty/newsletter-signup as a project I started to build to allow stamping out really cheap newsletter subscription services... i never got it finished but if it's interesting, I'd be happy to jump back in as I prefer to code for a good purpose
