---------------------------------------------------------------------- My apologies to those who have already encountered this announcement on NEW-LIST or elsewhere. We are trying to recruit as many historians, museum professionals and other scholars as possible. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dom Pisano of the Aeronautics Department of the National Air and Space Museum and I are sponsoring AEROSP-L, a new Internet discussion list on the history and material culture of aerospace. The list is directed at scholars and members of the museum profession who are interested in the ways that aerospace has shaped the twentieth century politically, culturally, socially, and economically. It is intended to provide a forum for sharing experience, ideas, reflections, comments, and sources of information on the history of and artifacts relating to aerospace. To suscribe, send the following command in the body of mail to [log in to unmask] SUBSCRIBE AEROSP-L <firstname> <lastname> For additional information, please contact the listowners: Dom Pisano [log in to unmask] (content) Barbara Weitbrecht [log in to unmask] (technical) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Pisano has suggested an initial reading for the list: Hansen, James. R. 1989. Aviation History in the Wider View. _Technology and Culture_ 30(3): 643-656. We hope this list to become a major resource for aerospace museum professionals. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
