Who are we?

The Space Engineering and Science Institute was formed to promote human exploration of space by bringing together researchers, explorers and students to develop and enhance the scientific and engineering visions required for space exploration and utilization.

Past Conference - Space Exploration 2005 was held in Albuquerque, NM, from Sunday, April 3 to Wednesday, April 6, 2005. It was composed of The First International Conference and Exposition on Engineering, Construction, Operation, Policy and Business in Space and The First Biennial Space Elevator Workshop.
