Tuesday, 3/29/11 - Just over a week till Space Access '11! The conference will once again take place at the Grace Inn in Phoenix Arizona. Book those flights now; they'll cost a lot more if you wait any longer. And reserve your room now at the Grace Inn at our $79 discount rate - our room block opened up to general rental after Thursday 3/17, and rooms are going fast. Don't end up paying more to stay at a far less convenient location because some tourist booked your room first. Call 800 843-6010 or 480 893-3000 for reservations and mention "space access" for our $79 rate. (This rate is for single or double, hot breakfast buffet included, and is good for three days before and after the conference if you want to catch a little extra springtime southwestern sun.) The Grace Inn is about ten freeway miles from the Phoenix airport via free hotel shuttle bus.
Our next annual conference will once again be an intensive, informal event, focused closely on the business, technology, and politics of radically cheaper space transportation. We've been running these Space Access conferences since the early nineties, and the audience tends to contain a high proportion of people working in the field on the entrepreneurial startup company end of things. To a considerable extent, our conference has been an incubator of that entrepreneurial end of things. And if you still can't make up your mind whether it's worth your attending, see the latest updated SA'11 Conference Schedule below.
Space Access '11 sessions will run Thursday afternoon April 7th through Saturday evening April 9th 2011. Conference registration is $100 in advance, $120 at the door ($30 student rate either way, day rates available at the door), and we're only set up to accept credit cards at the door - you need to mail us a check or money order for advance registration. Include your name, the affiliation (if any) you want listed on your badge, and your email address, make the check out to "Space Access '11", and mail it to Space Access '11, PO Box 16034, Phoenix AZ 85011. (Preregistrations must arrive by Tuesday April 5th at the latest.)
