New Worlds 2019
New Worlds 2019 will be held November 15–16 in Austin, Texas.
This conference is committed to enabling human beings to live and thrive
in space, to identifying and developing the technologies and approaches
needed to harvest space resources and using those resources to build new
industries, companies, and communities that will open the frontier, be
it on the Moon, Mars, or the Free Space between worlds.
Our Jason Dunn, Gabriel Rothblatt, Rick Tumlinson, and Robert Zubrin
will be speaking.

70th International Astronautical Congress
The 70th International Astronautical Congress will be held October
21–25, 2019 in Washington, D.C.
Today the broader space community stands at a pivotal juncture in the
course of future human space exploration. To succeed we must come
together to create a unified vision that can be realized through the
effective use of our collective assets and resources. It is in that
spirit of collaboration that we would host the global space community in
Washington, D.C., to envision what the next “giant leap” will be.
