Reinventing Space Conference

Spending Less and Getting More: The New Budget Reality
Space Budgets WILL get tighter. Last year the Responsive Space Conference became the Reinventing Space Conference in order to put greater emphasis on the importance of reducing cost. It was critical last year, and more so this year. The new budget reality is that there is less money available—to fund new programs, cost overruns in ongoing programs, or anything else that we need to do in space, either civil or military. www.reinventingspace.org
