Artist Gary LaSasso to Help Cygo

I'm proud to announce that the artist Gary LaSasso who's illustrations
have been published by BANTAM BOOKS and others is now working on
images that'll be displayed at our website at cygo.com. These images
will relate specificly to Cygo's Space Initiative.

A cannot over-stress my appreciation for his support for cygo and
space development.

>From a recent email for Gary LaSasso:

Hi George;
Glad to Hear from You, and Glad that Cygo is Focussed on these
Initial Habitats, Quite similar to The Space Station, and
Appropriately so.
I Think that these Prelimenary Enclosers are also on Target. I wonder
though, if it wouldn't be as Practical to Fabricate These Modules, at
least
in part, with Certain Composites; Very Strong and Flexible Epoxies, Fibers
and Carbon Polymers, Clear when Appropriate for Certain Applications.
If and when Off Planet Building Materials are Obtained from The loose,
and Small Debree of the Asteroid Belt, It May be Clearly more adventagious
to Utilise' The Irons, Metals, Minerals and Ice That We can Accumulate
there
and Process Here in Near Earth Vacinitty without concerning Our Selves
with
the Handling and Exploitation of The Larger Planetoids and such, at
least at
this Time in Our Very Near Future.
I Wondered Too if The 9x6 ft Cilynder Sections Shouldn't have a Slight
Convex Arch to them for Additional Strength and Room.
I Also Feel Strongly that Sections Including "Windows" may prove
Critical
for Smaller Enclosures which will House Terestrials That are Leaving
Their'
"Host Cell", Earth, for the 1st Time in The Planets History.

I Personally Don't Understand why We, {Humanity},are so Fixed on
Exploiting Mars and Even The Moon, for Building Materials, When The
Asteroid
Belt is Laid out Before Us, Like a Smorgas-board of Rock, Iron and Ice...
..And what about The Possibillity, as Velokovski Believed, That This
Debree,
is The Remnants of The Fourth Planet That May even have been
Inhabitted When
The Sun was Larger and Hotter? That Would Certainly give More Credance to
Ancient Tales of Vessles (A Wheel Within a Wheel),witnessed Biblically by
Ezekiel, Daniel and Others? I'm From Brooklyn,Though, Which is the same as
Missouri, but I Still Believe It's Worth A "Look See".
Also, as Veloekovski Observed; One side of Mars is Totally Busted Up,
and Cratered, While the Other Side is Relatively Smooth?..

Also if We Are to be True Space Farers, We are Going To Have to Stop
Thinking about being Tied To a Planet; Any Planet. Why Go to Mars Just
to be
Stuck to a Surface Which is Revolving in a 24-25 hour Cycle, When it
Will be
Easier to Mimic The Cycles of Life Off Planet Where We Control Our
Location
Relative To Our Star and Our Eventual Intentions... Then Why Leave
Earth in
The First Place, Except for Its Possible Demise. You Mentiontioned in an
Earlier Note That it May Be Hard to Find People Willing To be Pioneers to
Another Star, Which May Be True; But I Would Leave Yesterday if it were at
all Possible. I'm Sure We can Create intersteller Habitats at Least
as "Comfy" as The Nina, Pinta, and The Rafts that took The
Polenesians' over
3000 miles in Earlier Times.
I Believe Heading towards Alpha Centauri, and Sirius, is Built into Our
Make Up. Luis and Clark, Americo Vesputio, Lief Erikson, Magellan and
Thier'
Crews... It was In Thier' Blood as it is in Ours.
A Short Hundred and Ten Years Ago We were still Taking Bets That We
would
Never Leave The Ground...

Anyway, George, I'm Sorry for Bending Your' Ear, as Usual, If You're
Still
Reading This; and sorry for the Spelling; Theres not much Time to
Check It.
So I'de Better Get Back to Work...
...Oh', and Thanks again for Connecting My Web Site To Cygo. I will
Connect
Cygo to Mine as Soon as I can Walk Through it. I'm Still Computer
Illiterate,
Though I Took Binary Systems in School in 75. In Fact I'm Reluctantly
Making
My Transition From 8-Tracks to CDs. Its Hard To Find "Iron Butterfly" and
Early "Steppn' Wolf" on Cassettes, much Less CDs...

Thanks Again
Gary
