I think that is an excellent idea. To have all of the remaining satellite pioneers give their stories once again to us...the new...should be top priority with the coming of the "next generation" satellites, and their users.
A few nights ago, I perused some old issues of QST that I have here, and two artocles in particular were awe-inspiring. One was the first amateur two-way Moonbounce QSO, c. 1960...and the second was the Project Oscar and the Oscar 1 transmitter.
Good Luck to all on this most stellar endeavour.
