A company in Los Angeles called Orbit Productions has been formed to 

stage the first ever concert from space.  A large portion of the proceeds

from this venture is to be donated to various charities.



The following is a letter that was sent to Mikhael Gorbachev that 

explains the current position to date. 







Chairman Mikhael Gorbachev

The Kremlin

Moscow, Russia





Dear Chairman Gorbachev:



We  have organized a company in the U.S.A.  whose

main goal is to produce the first ever musical concert  broadcast

from space.  To that end, we are in negotiations with some of the

most  famous  musical  stars  in the world,  many  of  whom  have

expressed an interest in performing while orbiting high above the

earth.   We  of course,  have been in touch with NASA,  and while

they  are  receptive to the idea,  are not booking  civilians  on

shuttle flights for the foreseeable future.



We  would like to explore the possibility of booking passage  for

our  "star",  on  one  of your spacecraft  with  a  view  towards

broadcasting  the  concert live from your space station  while  a

pre-rehearsed band plays the accompaniment on earth from a yet to

be determined venue.



The  boldness  of the concept provides a  unique  opportunity  to

further  stimulate  international  harmony between  our  nations,

where  the  artist  would be American,  but the  stage  would  be

Soviet.   Our aim is to do this concert as close to Christmas  of

1990  as  possible.   We would appreciate learning what  are  the

available launch dates.   We are prepared to pay any price within

reason.



We intend to donate a portion of the proceeds to further research

into  the cure of Retinitis Pigmentosa,  the World Wildlife  Fund

and  others.   We  would  also  be happy to donate  some  of  the

proceeds to a charity of your choosing.   We await your favorable

reply.



Yours sincerely,



Stanley Ralph Ross

Martin Genis



Directors
