Pete Worden, center director for NASA's Ames Research Center, described himself as a "reformed zealot" about space-based solar power systems on the show.[5]

Livingston earned his MBA in 1978, and his Doctorate of Business Administration from Golden Gate University in 2001.[6] Livingston and the show have been quoted by NBC News in 2006 and Fox News in 2009 regarding progress in civilian space funding and execution, specifically SpaceShipOne,[7][8] and the reentry of the doomed Russian Phobos-Grunt Mars spacecraft in 2011.[9]

The Space Show hosted, with Livingston moderating, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics panel review of the 2009 Augustine Commission on future U.S. human space flight.[10]

Philip Harris has described the show as "a platform for knowledgeable, educational exchanges on humanity's space future and opportunities".[4] In 2004, Fraser Cain, publisher of Universe Today and co-host of Astronomy Cast, described The Space Show as a "favorite" and that he was "astonished and jealous at the caliber of guests".[11]
