Welcome to the revitalized SOARmag.com.

SOAR Magazine has rolled out a new look and some new features, and there’s still more to come. We like to think of this as akin to the shuttle heading out the the launch pad — everything is all gussied up, but there’s still work ahead before a successful launch.

Rest assured that there’s more to come than the initial cosmetic touch up we’ve given the site. For starters, SOARmag.com now operates under a new content management system that we hope will be more robust and permit the return of user comments (which were previously closed because of pervasive spam issues).

Then there’s the new Wiki section. Just like the famed Wikipedia, the SOAR Wiki will allow members of our community to contribute their knowledge.

Primarily, I want SOAR to be a place where young minds can find the fascination of space exploration what I discovered as a young boy. I want the site to be filled with the type of information that students can use as a launching pad for essays about space and as a resource that provides accurate information.

Finally, I want SOAR to deliver space to the computer monitor. And, I don’t want it to be just my space — I want it to be your space.

Thanks for joining in.
