Many Roads to Space
The purpose of the “Many Roads to Space“ track is to allow ISDC registrants to come together to exchange views, to seek new ideas and new directions to follow in pushing for accelerated space development, and to pass on their own ideas and experiences in the ISDC setting. Presenters may make a presentation on any space-related subject of special importance to them and of potential interest to others. These subjects may include “outside the box” topics, just-born concepts that need further
development, or subjects of narrow or specialized interest.
