The conference will focus on the future of military space in the new DoD Service. USAF/USSF Senior Leaders and SSC program offices will share their plans for the next five years and panels of industry representatives will provide their perspective on challenges they are facing as they develop aerospace solutions. The event will provide an environment for participating attendees from both the government and commercial sectors to interact on the issues important to the future of SSC. The feedback generated from the Space Industry Day will help inform government and industry alike as they work though the major issues challenging the future of the nation’s space capability.
