This is my friend Dean. Dean owns Starizona in Tucson AZ. I gave one of my Apollo 12 paintings to him in thanks for all the help he has been to me over the last couple of years. Dean has set up a Celestron Scope with one of his HyperStars which will be taking off on a Japanese rocket next month bound for the ISS. Deans HyperStar and Celestron Telescope will become a fixture on the ISS. Hats off to him. Prior to this photo Dean was at NASA for 3 days checking all the set-up and packaging for the rocket flight to the ISS

Thanks Steve. Dean is such a great guy he really deserves some prase. I'm very excited for him and the ISS venture, really cool for him and his staff. I am looking forward to seeing the first images that NASA will be posting from the ISS. All very cool I am sure. He had some fun stories to share about going to NASA all good fun.

Nicely done Phil and nice "shout out" to Dean and Starizona for the work they did to supply the ISS with a telescope of their own.
