Southampton PA (SPX) Aug 07, 2008 Environmental Tectonics has announced that the National AeroSpace Training and Research (NASTAR) Center was honored with an award from the Space Frontier Foundation during the NewSpace 2008 conference.

The "Vision to Reality" Award was presented to the NASTAR Center in acknowledgement and appreciation of the effort NASTAR Center took in the creation of their now successful Space Training programs, both for Virgin Galactic's 'Future Astronaut' trainees, and for NASTAR Center's Air and Space Adventure Program Training courses available for any and all space enthusiasts who wish to sign up for a realistic Space launch experience.

The Space Frontier Foundation's Annual NewSpace conference took place this year on July 17-19, 2008 in Crystal City, Virginia. The annual conference is a single-track program focusing completely on entrepreneurial space activities that aim to create productive discussions, rather than presentations.

This year's NewSpace 2008 program consisted of three themes: NewSpace Policy, NewSpace Business and NewSpace Vision.

"America is in a time of change," says Space Frontier Co-Founder Rick Tumlinson, "including space."

The "Vision to Reality" Award was accepted with great honor and will be displayed in the main lobby of NASTAR Center for all to enjoy.

Glenn King, COO of NASTAR Center said, "We are proud to accept this award from the Space Frontier Foundation. The NASTAR Center continues to develop and implement unique space training programs to provide authentic space flight training for space travelers and those who wish to fly into space."
