Space Shuttle, Ladies of the Night and The Long Rattling Chain

Dakota Midday - 07/07/2011

Tom Durkin, Deputy Director of the South Dakota Space Grant Consortium at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, discusses tomorrow's scheduled final launch of the space shuttle and tonight's Science Cafe event in Lead.

Artist Ben Humphrey has created a series of paintings for the "Ladies of the Night" exhibit opening tomorrow at the Lead Deadwood Arts Center.  His inspiration for the paintings were photographs of 1940's Deadwood prostitutes.

John Hardy and Stackolee, members of the Minneapolis based musical group The Rattling Chain, are traveling the country and spending one week in each state, writing and recording a song about that state.  They unveil a portion of their song about South Dakota live in SDPB's Rapid City studio today.
