Happy New Year everyone. The old blogging got a little slow towards the end of 2007, but let's not allow that to happen again, eh?
I just know you're all going to love New Mexico's advertising campaign. New Mexico, if you didn't know already, is going to be home to Spaceport America, the world's first space port. Yes, really! Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic will take off from the facility in the New Mexico desert from 2010.
Add to that the fact that New Mexico has a long history with space and aliens - charting back to the story of a supposed UFO crash in the desert near Roswell in July 1947. The military said it was a weather balloon, but that never stopped the tale from establishing a spot in science-fiction folklore.
So, what better theme for their TV advertising campaign than aliens from outer space? Click here to visit New Mexico, Earth. The ads show how office-bound aliens deliver the message that New Mexico truly offers the best vacation experience in the universe.
There are two ads to watch, and also a peek behind-the-scenes.
