Here's a letter that was sent to the Exploratorium from KQED-
>These folks are looking for classes of kids. Read on
>regarding
>KQED’s television series, “Bay Windows.” As I mentioned in our phone
>conversation, our studio-based program is entitled “Anatomy of a Space
>Flight: A Bay Window Special.” The local program will feature David T.
>Adair who is an internationally recognized leader and expert in the
>field of space technology along with special guests. The program is not
>a lecture, but more of a presentation with Mr. Adair as he puts some of
>the most interesting and human-related aspects of space technology in
>everyday language through the use of props and models. The program
>format will also include a segment where studio audience members will
>have an opportunity to ask David Adair and our special guests
>questions. Our
>“Bay Window” program will follow the national documentary “Astronauts”
>which takes viewers on a once-in-a-lifetime journey with the Endeavor
>crew of Space Shuttle Flight STS-72.
>
>The studio audience will be comprised of students (middle school and up)
>and people who may not know much about space technology, but have a
>special interest and curiosity about it. In other words, we can think
>of it as "Space Technology - 101."
>
>The taping will take place on Wednesday, January 20 at KQED, Channel 9.
>We are asking audience members to arrive around 5:30pm and they can
>expect to be here till about 9:00pm. Of course, all of these details
>and directions will be confirmed when interested audience members call
>for a reserved seat on our reservation line at: (415) 553-2230.
>
>As a note, for those who cannot attend the taping, the documentary
>“Astronauts” will air on KQED on Wednesday, January 27 at 8:00pm and the
>“Bay Window” program with David Adair will follow immediately at 9:30pm.
