Alliance for Space Development

The National Space Society co-founded and participates in the Alliance for Space Development (ASD), a non-partisan organization dedicated to influencing space policy in favor of space development and settlement through citizen advocacy. Founded in 2015, ASD comprises 17 like-minded nonprofit organizations that support expanding human activity beyond Earth. Being non-partisan, the Alliance’s guiding philosophy is to collaborate with both political parties to achieve its goals.
Throughout the year, ASD engages Congress to advocate for its objectives. Each spring, they organize a citizen advocacy event called March Storm, where space enthusiasts from ASD member organizations and other interested individuals meet with Congressional leaders to advocate for space development through policies and legislation. You can find out more about ASD at www.allianceforspacedevelopment.org.
