[Moonbase-discuss] Yuri's Night World Space Party--SF Update 03-12-2002

[Samuel Coniglio]

Howdy folks!

You are on this list because you expressed interest in participating 
in Yuri's Night SF, or you are a space person who is in the SF Bay 
Area.

Forty-one years ago, one man did something that people thought 
possible: he flew into space. That moment was an achievement for all 
of humanity.

On Friday April 12, 2002, the entire planet will celebrate cosmonaut 
Yuri Gagarin's adventure.

           NEKID and MoonFront present:

       ORBIT: Yuri's Night 2002 SF The World Space Party

ORBIT, located at Kelly's Mission Rock on the San Francisco 
waterfront, is part of the Yuri's Night global celebration. Yuri's 
Night is the largest global grassroots celebration of human space 
exploration. On April 12, space enthusiasts from around the planet 
will join party-goers in San Francisco at ORBIT.

About Yuri's Night SF

The San Francisco party is #69 out of all the parties taking place on 
April 12th. This party will also be streamed live on the Internet, 
via GrooveFactory.com. Look forward to a historic house/trance dance 
event raging on until 4am with some of the Bay Area's finest DJs. 
There will be booths from local space organizations and some very 
special guests as well. It will be a truly unique celebration that 
you cannot miss.

At 6:00 pm, the doors will open. Exhibitors from various local and 
national space and high technology organizations will be presenting 
their stuff to the public. From 6-9:00 pm, Kelly's Mission Rock and 
its restaurant will be open to the general public.

At 9:00 pm, the doors close. At 10:00 pm the doors re-open and 
Mission Rock becomes ORBIT! An all night dance party to celebrate 
peace, love, music, and space. The space and tech vendors will be
