Beyond Earth Symposium

The Beyond Earth Symposium is the inaugural annual forum hosted by the Beyond Earth Institute. The Symposium will examine U.S. and international near-term policies that will best enable economically vibrant communities beyond Earth. Senior policy professionals from industry, academia and government will gather together and lean into the critical policy and legal issues that will help shape the future of human presence in space.

Human expansion into space, leading eventually to large space-based communities, is rapidly becoming a reality and requires the focused engagement of space policy and legal professionals. The Beyond Earth Institute contends that good policy must lead, not follow, the development of human spaceflight and habitation.

With plenty of opportunities for networking, the Symposium will be a place where lasting connections can be formed around a shared sense of purpose and vision.

The Beyond Earth Symposium is being organized in generous cooperation with the University of Arizona Lunar & Planetary Laboratory.
