About:
The Space Education & Strategic Applications Conference: Focusing The Telescope, co-organized by the American Public University System and the Policy Studies Organization brings together influencers, innovators, groundbreakers, and decision-makers within all areas of the space community: astronauts, astrobiologists, engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, educators, associations, students, educators, and policy makers. We aim to promote multidisciplinary conversations about issues related to both military and civilian space, at the intersection between science, technology, education, and policy.
Presenters and attendees will have many opportunities to share current findings, identify challenges and share solutions through rich discussions and networking.
