Latest space research from MIT & USC at TC Sessions: Space 2020

See the latest space innovations developing at USC, MIT, Caltech & more

Up until now, space exploration and technology has always been tied to orbiting, observing and reporting back to earth. But it’s time to take on a new, expanded commitment — to boldly go into space — and stay there, i.e. space exploration, commerce and habitation. It means moving humans beyond planet Earth and out into the solar system.

At TC Sessions: Space on December 16 & 17, you'll hear from scientists and academics from USC, MIT, UCLA, ASU and Caltech sharing insights on their space research and highlighting a range of emerging space technologies to usher us into this new era.

Over the course of these two sessions, you’ll hear from:

• Randy Villahermosa (general manager & executive director of Innovation, The Aerospace Corporation)
• Dr. Richard Linares (co-director, Space Systems Lab, MIT)
• David A. Barnhart (director, Space Engineering Research Center; Research Professor, USC)
• Kerri Cahoy (associate professor, Aeronautics & Astronautics, MIT)
• Bethany Ehlmann (professor of Planetary Science, Caltech – Lunar Trailblazer Mission)
• Craig Hardgrove (assistant professor, School of Earth and Space Exploration, Arizona State University)
• Dr. James M. Weygand (space physicist, Department of Earth, Planetary & Space Science, UCLA)

At this event, you'll also hear from the most important people in the space industry, across public, private, primes and defense. We'll be talking about space exploration, human space flight, earth observation, launch providers, in-space operations and more! Additionally, you'll get to attend smaller, informative breakout sessions to discover how you can access millions in grant money for your space startup.

TC Sessions: Space 2020 promises two days of connection, education, inspiration and lots of opportunity. Don’t have a pass? Get yours right here before prices increase next week. Join other bold visionaries, check the program-packed agenda and plan your schedule now.
