I always enjoy giving clients and visitors VIP tours of our conference center.  One of my favorite rooms is named Tranquility.  It is a room set up for attorneys and business people to relax in, watch television, make a phone call, or think.  Our Tranquility room is named after the base camp that the astronauts used when they first landedwalked on the moon.

DCC principal Chris Jordan’s passion is NASA and space.  Chris named our conference center “Discovery Conference Centre” after the Discovery space program (as well as the play on words, because “discovery” is what attorneys do when litigating a case).

From my research I have learned that “Tranquility Base Camp” was Armstrong and Aldrin’s idea.  Their intent was to emphasize the fact they were explorers, not just pilots like the astronauts before them, and therefore wanted a “base camp” to explore out of.   Where the Eagle landed on the moon was near the Sea of Tranquility, hence “Tranquility Base Camp.”

We want our clients to feel our conference center is their base camp.  It is a technologically advanced meeting space for business people/lawyers to do business out of, whether it is taking a deposition, doing a technology training, or meeting a client.

The next time you are in San Diego, come visit our conference center, grab a cup of coffee and spend a few minutes in Tranquility.  Let us be your base camp.
