Space Tourism Conference
Space tourism is soaring. Sky-high. Or rather, space high. High enough that it deserves its own conference!
With decades of development behind it, and passing from its first phase—seven people have each paid millions of dollars to rocket to the International Space Station (ISS) as private space travelers with one flying twice—the space tourism industry has entered its next generation with private enterprise flights and a variety of other consumer offerings.
This next evolution of the market will yield major, long-lasting advances—including lunar flybys.
Space for Humanity is a proud sponsor of the Space Tourism Conference. Our Executive Director, Rachel Lyons, will a panelist for Session #6 on the 29th.
