Business Wire
Principal Solar, Inc (PSI; OTC Pink: PSWW), a publicly traded
renewable energy holding company which concentrates its resources
on rapidly advancing the inevitable, worldwide utilization of
solar energy through a unique roll-up strategy, announced today
that Dr. Buzz Aldrin, Doctor of Science (MIT), aeronautical
engineer, retired United States Air Force Colonel, decorated
fighter pilot, and legendary astronaut who served as Lunar Module
pilot on Apollo 11 -- the first manned lunar landing in history --
will serve as senior advisor. In conjunction with his appointment
to the Advisory Board, Dr. Aldrin appeared in partnership with Hunt
Energy Enterprises at the Principal Solar launch party, Oct. 19,
2011, at Hunt headquarters,1900 North Akard St., Dallas, Texas.
“We are honored to welcome the distinguished Dr. Aldrin to our
team, and expect that his guidance will literally take us to the
moon,” says Michael Gorton, chief executive officer and chairman of
PSI. “His years of aerospace experience, matched with his
dedication and continued support of solar power and research for
renewable energy sources, aligns him directly with our bottom-line
initiatives.”
In 1966, Dr. Aldrin performed the world’s first successful
spacewalk on the Gemini 12 orbital mission. On July 20, 1969, he
and Neil Armstrong made their historic Apollo 11 moonwalk, becoming
the first two humans to set foot on another world. Upon returning
from the moon, Dr. Aldrin was presented with the Presidential Medal
of Freedom, the highest American peacetime award. Since
retiring from NASA and the Air Force, Dr. Aldrin has remained at
the forefront of efforts to ensure America’s continued leadership
in human space exploration.
His recent trip with President Obama aboard Air Force One to the
Space Conference at Kennedy Space Center serves as testament to how
influential his opinions are to the key decision-makers in
Washington, D.C.
“It’s a privilege to work with the seasoned, high-minded team of
innovators at Principal Solar as they propel self-sustaining energy
solutions into the mainstream,” states Dr. Aldrin. “In the near
future, solar energy will compete with and actually cost less than
traditional sources of energy created by fossil fuels. It’s time
for the United States to catch up with the rest of the world by
embracing this opportunity to become free of devastating oil
disasters, independent from foreign oil, and a stronger, more
prosperous nation.”
