Commemorating the Memory of Dandridge Cole
Dandridge Cole who co wrote Islands in
Space: The
Challenge of the Planetoids, with Donald Cox has been dead now
for 40 years. He had untimely death. His book Islands in Space: The
Challenge of the Planetoids" laid the ground work for much of our
current thinking on the Exploration, Mining, and Colonization of the
Asteroids. Have there been any publications, magazine articles, or
ceremonies to commemorate his memory?
I had the great privilege of meeting Donald Cox at the National Space
Society's International Space Development Congress (ISDC) when it was
held in New York City back in 1996. He autographed my copy of Islands
in Space". It is one of my most prized books in my library. When I met
Donald Cox he was well into his 80's. I doubt if he is still living
today.

From Hank Smith, of Philly. Yes, Donald Cox, who I knew as a fellow member of PASA, (Philadelphia Area Space Alliance), is dead. I scheduled him for Science Programming at Philcon, a General Science Fiction Convention held in Philly. Yours truly,
