We chose to bid for a DSC to be held in Huntsville because the first DSC was held there in 1963, and we think it's only fitting that it come full circle for number 50. Now, thanks to you, we've won the bid and we plan a traditional DSC (with perhaps a new twist or two) that has an emphasis on Southern hospitality and the science in science fiction. Huntsville's centrally located and a fun place to visit – it's the Rocket City!

Huntsville already has a fine annual convention in Con*Stellation, hosted by NASFA. This, however, will be a one-time, independent con, with a committee drawing from all over the South.
