research in Hawaii

5/22/2026

​Hello everyone!
Just a quick note to thank you for signing up on this list and for your interest in my work! I am heading to Hawaii today (if all goes to plan) to do some research for a book I'm currently working on with my husband Glen E. Swanson and with Jon Lomberg, the Design Director of the Voyager Golden Record that was launched into space on Voyagers 1 and 2 back in 1977. The anniversary of those flights is coming up next year and we'll have a special book coming out that is part memoir, part history, and part cultural analysis. More on that here: https://www.thebookseller.com/rights/groundbreaking-explorat...
Glen and I are due to meet with Jon next week and explore his archives with him. 
In the meantime, the book came out and has been doing well. I did a podcast with Kate Manser about the real-life applications of what I learned from the space community: https://youtu.be/yei8_SWYGBo?si=k0EPTZ7YqKcbm24r and there's a preview of the audiobook version of The Ultraview Effect available now - it's the first two minutes of the book, read by voice actor Christina Delaine: https://rbmediaglobal.com/audiobook/9798318589867/
If you’ve finished The Ultraview Effect, reviews on Amazon and Goodreads really help readers discover the book. And I'd love to hear what you think directly, so feel free to send me a note. 
All the best,
Deana
