The Exclusive Newspace Gathering Takes Place November 8 and 9, 2024

The National Space Society’s Space Settlement Summit 2024 will be held November 8-9, 2024, at the Center for Space Education at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This is a unique event, offering intimate access to some of the leading figures in space settlement and development. Participants will join NSS leadership and a dynamic group of leaders from the space industry, government, military, and academia.
