Space Force: More than a Meme
From social media posts to slogans on shirts, everyone has their own colorful view of Space Force and what it will do. While many hear the name and think of “phasers set to stun” or X-wings in a galaxy far far away, the real purpose is focused much closer to home. Join former Department of Defense officials and industry experts to understand why the U.S. created a Space Force and what its actual role will be in establishing vital space infrastructure and protecting Americans and our assets – in space and on Earth.
Start-Up Life: Aerospace Edition
From raising capital and finding talent to classified meetings with NASA and the Department of Defense, launching an aerospace start-up is a rocket-fueled thrill ride. Hear from founders, funders, and early employees of some of the most talked about aerospace start-ups on their out-of-this-world lifestyle.
How We’ll Live and Work in Space
In the not too distant future, people will travel to space as easily as they fly across the globe. Space engineers of today recognize that the astronauts of tomorrow will need adaptable habitats, suits, and tools for a diverse set of missions—a far cry from the needs of military test pilots during the Apollo era. Hear from retired NASA astronaut and Collins Aerospace’s Joan Higginbotham, Boeing Commercial Crew engineer Kavya Manyapu, and NASA engineer Marc Ciupitu for a look behind the curtain a
