[General] Makers Local 256 at International Space Development Conference 2011 (May 18-22 at VBC)

[Ethan Chew]

Makers Local 256 will be presenting at a booth at the local International
Space Development Conference (ISDC). The conference runs from May 18-22 at
the Von Braun Center. We’ll be in the Von Braun Center East
Hall<http://isdc.nss.org/2011/VBC-ES-Map.shtml>.
Come check us out!

The conference covers several broad areas of study related to building a
spacefaring civilization, including transportation to and through space,
technology needed to live and work in space, and Earth-based activities to
advocate for or educate others about space development. The overall theme
for ISDC 2011 is “From the Ground Up,” emphasizing the tools, resources, and
social activities that must be accomplished to make a spacefaring
civilization a reality. Participants are encouraged not just to describe an
ideal “future state,” but to think about the technical, economic, or
advocacy steps that must be accomplished to achieve a specific goal.

Makers Local 256 members can register for the conference at the
‘co-supporter’ discount rate regardless of his/her NSS membership status. In
the registration form under ‘Section I’, select ‘Makers Local 256′ in the
‘ISDC Sponsor/Co-Sponsor’ field.
