Our smaller breakout sessions allow time for Q&A, and here’s just one topic that we reckon will generate plenty of questions.
ISAM: A Commercial Linchpin for the New Space Economy: Large-scale commercial investments will dominate the next wave of space innovation, including commercial space stations in low Earth orbit (LEO) and technologies that will enable a permanent human presence on the moon. The United States has issued a national policy for developing In-space Servicing, Assembly, and Manufacturing (ISAM) capabilities that can operationally sustain the new space economy with efficiency and scale. Led by Carolyn Mercer, chief technologist at NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, this session encourages participants to roll up their sleeves, break past the 411 on ISAM, and get practical advice on how to stimulate ISAM capability development.
