Richardson and Griffin to Talk Spaceports

Gov. Richardson meets with feds to secure financial help for Spaceport, Las Cruces Sun News

"Gov. Bill Richardson and the director of New Mexico's spaceport made the rounds in Washington this week, trying to secure federal help in the state's push toward space commercialization. There were no immediate business or funding agreements but the effort could produce long-term payoffs after Richardson secured expressions of support from NASA's top boss and a key congressional leader. Richardson and Spaceport America executive director Steve Landeene met Wednesday in Washington, D.C., with NASA's Administrator Michael Griffin."
