“You Are Here - The University of Chicago alum Edwin Hubble published the existence of other galaxies in 1925, but our own Milky Way has lived in the minds of humanity since the time we first looked to the stars. The Milky Way is our past, and is, for the foreseeable time, our future. We find ourselves two-thirds of the way out from its galactic nucleus; it's rough around the edges and on the smaller end, but it's home - the birthplace of our human odyssey and our communion with worlds unknown. With SpaceVision 2022, the University of Chicago seeks to celebrate the exploration of our own neck of the woods - the mundane, the grandiose, and the inconceivable. Like a pin on a map to the worlds that await us.”

“Moonshots aren’t just about going to the moon. They’re also about tackling ambitious projects and taking great strides in our search for knowledge in space. This theme encompasses many advancements to come in the next few years, from the Artemis missions to the James Webb Telescope! With over 500 attendees expected, SpaceVision will be a fun and great way to connect with leaders in anything space related. Whether you’re interested in aerospace engineering, marketing, astronomy, or programming, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to explore your interests!”

“The Spaceport America Cup is designed around IREC – the Intercollegiate Rocket Engineering Competition for student rocketry teams from all over the country and around the world. With over 110 teams from colleges and universities in eleven countries, 2017 was the competition’s biggest year yet. Students launched solid, liquid, and hybrid rockets to target altitudes of 10,000 and 30,000 feet.”

“Join hundreds of passionate young professionals for the annual national conference of Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (SEDS). The conference is organized and run entirely by students, and will run through November 7th through November 10th, 2019. SpaceVision 2019 will be held at Arizona State University's main campus in Tempe, AZ.”

UNH SEDS will be bringing 20 team members to the 2019 Spacevision conference this year! We are not only attending the conference, but presenting at it! Charlie Nitschelm will be doing a presentation on the Matthew Isakowitz Fellowship Program, Andrew Masters will be presenting his research on quadcopters UAV’s, and the hybrid rocket lead will be presenting their work on UNH SEDS’ three year plan to compete in Spaceport America Cup in June 2020. Exciting!

“In the past half-century, the United States has contributed to humanity’s quest to explore the unknown and expand the boundaries of our terrestrial existence. Through domestic investments and international partnerships, the United States has worked to satisfy humanity’s innate curiosity and yearning to explore.

As a nation we invite the world to commemorate that “one giant leap for mankind” and celebrate the international accomplishments and partnerships that have become the hallmarks of space exploration.

Today the broader space community stands at a pivotal juncture in the course of future human space exploration. To succeed we must come together to create a unified vision that can be realized through the effective use of our collective assets and resources. It is in that spirit of collaboration that we would host the global space community in Washington, D.C., to envision what the next “giant leap” will be.”
