DASEF Covers

DASEF is the Delaware AeroSpace Education Foundation (http://www.dasef.org), which is spearheaded by Stephanie Wright, an old friend, customer, educator and Teacher-in-Space candidate for Delaware in the 80's. The impressive facilty at DASEF is about half done, and so moved Mr. Burrel Adams that he specified in his will that his space autograph collection be given to DASEF, which it was. Stephanie has charged AstronautCentral with turning the collection into dollars. Mr. Adams was a friend of many shuttle astronauts. It's a worthy cause.
