I first learned of the great significance and potential of resources in near-Earth space a few years ago and immediately realized that establishing an infrastructure through which to utilize these resources to improve our civilization will likely be the most important human endeavor to take place in my lifetime. This revelation inspired me to return to school to study electronics engineering as a starting point from which to begin my career with the ultimate goal of becoming involved in developing and establishing such an infrastructure. This desire has only grown stronger with time as I learned more about the current state of the space industry and the failure of governmental space agencies to pursue meaningful and productive goals. Now that I am approaching graduation, the time has come to begin seriously investigating options as to how to make my dream a reality. My question to everyone here is <b>what companies or organizations are expected to be at the forefront of developing a space-based industrial infrastructure so I can focus my attention on them, and which of the space societies out there would prove most useful for networking with other individuals or organizations regarding this subject?</b><br /><br />John<br />
