We are thrilled to share that NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine will present the keynote address at the LSIC Fall Meeting. Administrator Bridenstine will update attendees on the latest developments for the Artemis program.

It will be an engaging and interactive two days, even in this virtual world. We hope you will join us on October 14 and 15.

Meeting Information

Day 1 (Oct 14th) will include the address by Administrator Jim Bridenstine and updates from Associate Administrator for Space Technology, Jim Reuter. These talks will be followed with an update on LSII and LSIC. Our virtual host, Arizona State University (ASU), will provide an overview of the work taking place at ASU to expand participation in space. In addition, there will be a panel discussion with NASA program executives about funding, flight, and tech transfer opportunities. The day will conclude with a series of short talks and a poster session to share ongoing tech developments from LSIC community members.

Day 2 (Oct 15th) will focus on systems level concerns for establishing a sustained presence on the Moon, especially in the context of power. The day will begin with an address by NASA LSII Lead Niki Werkheiser presenting the space technology gaps, and will be followed by a panel discussion about power technology, gaps, and infrastructure. Participants will actively define the future through a series of breakout discussions on the challenges surrounding building a sustained presence on the Moon. Different groups will consider scenarios with different scales of power availability and identify expected capabilities and gaps within the given scenario.
