Space Policy:
What is it and why is it important?
by
Dr. Mary Lynne Dittmar
Executive Vice President of Axiom Space

---------------------------------------------------------
Dr. Dittmar will discuss national space policy – who makes it, why it is important, and how it impacts the development of national strategy, tactical planning, and government-industry activities and relationships. She will also address a global perspective and explore the relationships between U.S. space policy, international viewpoints, and national goals.
Dr. Mary Lynne Dittmar is Executive Vice President of Axiom Space, which is building the world’s first commercial space station. There she oversees Axiom’s activities pertaining to legislative and regulatory affairs as well as international relations. An internationally-known expert in human space exploration beginning with her work on the International Space Station, in 2015 she founded and served for over 5 years as President and CEO of the Coalition for Deep Space Exploration, an industry group supporting NASA’s programs in deep space exploration and science.
