Drayson at Reaction Engines: "2009 is a pivotal year for UK space"
Rocketeer — Sat, 23/05/2009 - 7:11pm

Rob Coppinger interviews Science Minister Lord Drayson at Reaction Engines. Drayson makes some strongly positive comments about commercial space technology development and the potential of reusable launch vehicles.
Drayson's views expressed in the video accord with a response his office sent to written questions by Stephen Ashworth of Astronautical Evolutions. I can't link to Drayson's letter because Stephen's only circulated it by email so far. Get a blog, Stephen! ;-)
Update: Drayson is on Twitter: @lorddrayson
