Loretta Hall
Loretta Hall has been interested in space travel since her teenage years. She followed closely the early NASA programs: selection of the first astronauts (the Mercury Seven), the suborbital and orbital missions of Mercury and Gemini, the Apollo steps toward a moon landing. She was entranced and thrilled to watch a live telecast of man's first steps on the moon.
In 1977, Loretta moved to New Mexico and became enamored with the state's rich cultural diversity and long history of indigenous people, European colonizers, and American settlers.
Thirty years later, when plans for Spaceport America, the country's only purpose-built commercial spaceflight facility, began moving forward, she was fascinated to discover the important role New Mexico has played in the development of space travel. She decided to herald that unheralded history by writing the only book to document the historic events in the state and the personal stories of the people who accomplished them. Out of this World: New Mexico's Contributions to Space Travel was published in the spring of 2011.
Loretta is a Space Ambassasor for the National Space Society and a member of the Historical Society of New Mexico's Speakers Bureau.
