AIAA GDST/MSP-TC - LA Section: Gravity Dependent Science Technology (Microgravity Space Processes) mini-Conference 2025

 

 

NASA just released the LEO Microgravity Strategies in December 2024, aligning the LEO Microgravity and ISS efforts and long years of experiences in physical and biological science and space manufacturing with the on-going / future missions of Cis-Lunar, Moon, Mars for safe long duration human spaceflights to and from the destinations. It has been attracting great attention.

 

At the same time, the AIAA Gravity Dependent Science Technology Technical Committee (GDST-TC) (formerly, Microgravity and Space Processes Technical Committee (MSP-TC)) for years has been facilitating professional advancement and public awareness of gravity-dependent (including microgravity (including low- / micro- / reduced- / partial- gravity (LMPRG), or hypo-/hyper-gravity (HHG)) science and technology, and space processes in the physical, materials, and biological sciences and related applications / industries / manufacturing.

 

Please join us and learn more about this exciting topic and growing field, and share your views, along with the AIAA GDST/MSP-TC and the leaders in the industries and academia.

(More speakers / panelists to be announced.)
