Hello,

Being new to Lifeboat, I'm wondering if anyone here will be attending the ISDC (International Space Development Conference) next month in Orlando?

If yes, I think it would be nice to meet up at some point to chat.

The conference itself is June 19 - 22, 2025. For all the info on the ISDC see isdc.nss.org  

ISDC is being held at Rosen Centre Hotel Orlando which is connected to the convention center. I've been told that there is limited room availability so don't wait too long in deciding whether or not to go - but there are other (and I'm told cheaper) hotels in the area.

And I had been asked privately by another person in the group whether or not there was a virtual attendance option. The answer to that question is no. I have heard that there has been some discussion about the possibility of streaming one or more of the plenaries but haven't followed it as I'll be there. I'll be doing 3 very different presentations at the conference: one on space industrialization, one on lunar cartography, and one reviewing the 2024 NSS Roadmap to Space student art contest.

The ISDC team has lined up a lot of great programming for the conference so I'm quite looking forward to it.
