Presents a letter to the editor which reports on an error in a story about Australia which appeared in this magazine in July/August 1990, and which has angered members of the Queensland Space Frontier Society (QSFS). Observation that Cape York is less than 20% rainforest area, and is not mostly comprised of rainforest; Statement that building a spaceport in the area will not harm the rainforest; Concern of the QSFS that conservationists in the U.S. will be upset by false information and will not support the spaceport project.
