Welcome!

Concerned with the lack of opportunities for students to launch experiments into space, a coalition of concerned professionals has initiated an effort to enlist the U.S. aerospace community's support in re-establishing access to space for student experiments.

An inaugural meeting of some of the members of this coalition and interested observers was held at the Twentieth National Space Symposium of the Space Foundation in Colorado Springs on April 4, 2006, to establish a course of action.

A second meeting of the coalition was held Tuesday, August 15, 2006, at the Twentieth Annual AIAA/USU Conference on Small Satellites in Logan, UT.

All interested parties are encouraged to contribute their ideas in this forum, and suggest solutions to the student space experiment access problem. You are also invited to add your name to the white paper. Click on the 'Forum' link to contribute and discuss.
