SUMMARY:Beyond Earth 2023 Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Beyond Earth Institute (BE) will again host the Beyond Earth Symposium on November 1-2\, 2023\, at the American University\, Washington School of Law\, in Washington\, DC. The Symposium will build on the success of BE’s inaugural event in October 2022. For more information\, visit https://beyondearthsymposium.org For press wishing to cover the event\, contact David Bullock at david@beyondearth.org. \nThis year we go deeper into the policy issues impacting the rapidly evolving space ecosystem. Stakeholders from across the industry\, government\, and international sectors will gather to examine the policy challenges of the moment and those that push the envelope to inspire the best chance for off-world migration in this century. \n“The success of the BE Symposium last year confirmed that we are on the right path\,” said BE President Steve Wolfe\, “The space community is now ready for a sober dialogue on the policies that can propel human spaceflight and habitation.” \nCourtney Stadd\, Executive Vice President of Beyond Earth\, added\, “Our growing list of sponsors\, as well as individual policy experts and organizations eager for BE to build on last year’s public-private sector engagement\, has generated momentum for continuing these in-person Space Symposia. We look forward to generating forward leaning concrete recommendations to ensure humanity’s continued off-planet communities that ultimately offer self-sustaining economic enterprises while benefiting our precious home planet.” \nHighlights of the Beyond Earth Symposium 2023: \nMore than 30 space policy thought leaders appearing at the Symposium include Lt. Gen. John E. Shaw\, Deputy Commander\, U.S. Space Command\, Matthew Daniels of the White House Office of Science and Technology\, and Courtney Stadd\, EVP of Beyond Earth Institute. \nThe session topics will introduce new thinking in each topic area. The audience will be drawn into the discussion. Session topics include: \n– We Go Together: Global Perspective on Space Development\n– Making the Case for Beyond Earth Communities\n– Ensuring the Success of Commercial Space Stations in a Post-ISS Era\n– From Surviving to Thriving in Space: Making Space Life Sciences A Priority\n– Building a Cislunar Ecosystem\n– Financing Pathways for Large-Scale Space Infrastructure and Communities \nProfessional networking at the BE Symposium will be a fusion of diverse expertise and development interests that will shape careers and help to stimulate business growth \nAbout the Beyond Earth Institute \nThe Beyond Earth Institute is a 501(c)(3) U.S. non-profit organization. It is at the heart of all related initiatives that impact the success of the space movement with respect to human expansion beyond Earth. Beyond Earth’s focus is on technology readiness\, worldwide public support\, and related public policy enactment\, including recommendations for policy initiatives.

SUMMARY:Software Defined Space Conference
DESCRIPTION:The third edition in the series dedicated to cyber security in space  “Software Defined Space Conference” (SDSC) takes place 1-2 November in Tallinn\, Estonia. \nWith software\, we can change the way we use and benefit from our space assets\, forecast and visualise future demand and bring the service providers and consumers together. \nThe added value of space technologies is already today created primarily on account of software and increasing connectivity. Through that\, in 2022 the space sector has entered a new era where cyber security plays an essential role in the continuity of service independence\, sustainability. This has in turn created a necessity to work on cyber security aspects of space systems already at design level. \nTherefore\, the focus of the event is on software development and cyber security for the space domain. With the aim to raise awareness of technologies\, opportunities\, commercialisation and growing the space community to support sustainable development in the sector.

SUMMARY:MilSat Symposium 2023
DESCRIPTION:The upcoming MilSat Symposium 2023 aims to establish novel means of communication between national space defense and the industry. As outdated methods of contracting the creation of customized satellites\, sensors\, ground equipment\, and software have become stagnant\, it has become increasingly essential for the Department of Defense (DoD) and the industry to communicate openly. The MilSat Symposium strives to establish these new channels of communication by bringing together leaders from the commercial space industry and defense decision-makers. \nThrough sessions\, keynote speeches\, and technical discussions\, influential experts will explore the most efficient and prompt solutions in developing and safeguarding crucial space assets. In addition to analyzing and discussing these solutions\, the sessions will also scrutinize the financial\, technical\, and logistical challenges encountered by the Space Force\, Space Command\, and commercial suppliers. Discover how you can contribute most efficiently to a more adaptable and competent space defense community.

SUMMARY:SDG18 Space For All\, on Earth and Beyond: Session for the U.N. General Assembly
DESCRIPTION:Space Renaissance International (SRI) and the National Space Society (NSS)\, on behalf of 47 space advocacy organizations (this alliance is expanding)\, will host a panel at the United Nations in New York\, on the 15th of September\, 2023\, from 9:15 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.\, to officially present their proposal for an 18th Sustainable Development Goal (SDG)\, focused on Space Development\, to be added to the U.N. 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. \nThe hybrid panel will take place in the U.N. district\, United Nations Plaza\, 777 11th Floor\, just in front of the U.N. headquarters. \nIn addition to SRI and NSS\, the coalition includes The Mars Society\, the Lifeboat Foundation\, the Human Space Program\, the Moon Society\, Beyond Earth Institute\, Space Development Foundation\, EarthLight Foundation\, space agencies\, educational institutions\, and other organizations. The complete list of Co-promoters may be found online at: https://spacerenaissance.space/the-space18sdg-proposer-organizations/. \n\n\nThe 18th SDG proposal was initially announced at U.N. COPUOS session 66th (on June 5\, 2023) by Karlton Johnson (on behalf of NSS\, SRI\, and the co-promoters coalition).The 18th SDG fosters Universal and Sustainable Space Development\, Space for All\, on Earth\, and Beyond. The Space 18th SDG coalition underscores the tremendous social significance of the 17 SDGs and of 2030 – a critical date and key turning point in human history. Before this date\, some meaningful steps have to be undertaken to ensure full sustainability for human development\, launching the expansion of life\, communities\, civilian activities\, and the earthly biome beyond the limits of planet Earth. These activities will require a strong and sustainable global commitment to a strategy facilitating and boosting research and financial engagement that can significantly reduce the cost of space vehicles and space flight\, protect human life and health in space\, and design closed ecosystems with vegetation and water inside. The proposed 18th SDG will focus on the above goals and more – enabling significant contributions of space development to enhance global development and sustainability – and soliciting all of the interested dealers to make their part to overcome this great challenge. \nAs stated in the 1986 U.N. resolution\, “development” is a universal civil right[[1]]. Accordingly[[2]]\, earthlings must now decisively collaborate to expand civilization into outer space\, populating the geo-lunar space and the solar system with communities and industrial activities\, progressively moving our industrial development beyond Earth’s surface\, allowing Earth’s planetary ecosystems to restore\, earthly wildlife to rejuvenate\, oceans to recover\, and environmental pollution to be mitigated. \nAdding an 18th SDG to the 2030 Agenda to promote the Sustainable Development of Space will also provide urgent and essential information to the public regarding the profound humanistic reasons for expanding civilizations beyond Earth. \n“Space4All enhances the development of science\, technology\, peace\, business\, education\, and inspiration for all citizens\, and extending it on Earth and beyond is a key to our ecosystem survival\, progress\, responsible legacy\, and space Renaissance for our future\,” says Bernard Foing\, president of Space Renaissance International. \nAlfred Anzaldúa\, National Space Society (NSS)\, Board of Directors Member\, NSS UN COPUOS Coordinator: “A Space 18th SDG would be a beacon to guide Earth-Life into space to help fulfill the 17 SDGs in the long-term. The Earth’s resources are finite\, while space and its resources are virtually infinite. Only by expanding human communities and their supporting life forms into space can we achieve long-term sustainability for humans and supporting life forms everywhere\, including on Earth.” \nAdriano V. Autino\, Founder of Space Renaissance International: “The five years from 2025 to 2030 could be the most critical period in human history\, in which several social\, economic\, and environmental processes will come to a combined breaking point. Against the many bleak prospects\, the only perspective capable of giving hope and psychological power to the good willing peoples of Planet Earth is to kick off expanding civilization into outer space\, before 2030. This is the profound meaning of the Space 18th SDG.” \nLearn how to join the Space18thSDG coalition and support the proposal: https://space18thsdg.space/ \nFollow the 15th September Panel on YouTube:  https://youtube.com/live/3dyrsT5jtaM \nSign the petition for #Space18SDG on Change.org:  https://www.change.org/space18sdg \nContacts: \n\nadriano.autino@spacerenaissance.org +39 335 8244435\nalfred.anzaldua@nss.org +1 520 4095797\n\n[1] Declaration on the Right to Development adopted 04 December 1986 by General Assembly resolution 41/128 https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/declaration-right-development \n[2] “We are committed to making the right to development a reality for everyone and to freeing the entire human race from want.” The resolution\, adopted by the General Assembly 55/2.

SUMMARY:NASA to Release\, Discuss Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Report
DESCRIPTION:NASA will host a media briefing at 10 a.m. EDT on Thursday\, Sept. 14\, at the agency’s headquarters in Washington to discuss the findings from an unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) independent study team it commissioned in 2022. \nAbout 30 minutes before the briefing\, the agency will publish the team’s full report online\, which aims to inform NASA on what possible data could be collected in the future to shed light on the nature and origin of UAP. The report is not a review or assessment of previous unidentifiable observations. \nNASA defines UAP as observations of events in the sky that cannot be identified as aircraft or known natural phenomena from a scientific perspective. There are currently a limited number of high-quality observations of UAP\, which make it impossible to draw firm scientific conclusions about their nature. \nThe briefing will stream live on NASA Television\, the NASA app\, and the agency’s website at: https://www.nasa.gov/live \nBriefing participants include: \n– NASA Administrator Bill Nelson\n– Nicola Fox\, associate administrator\, Science Mission Directorate\, NASA Headquarters in Washington\n– Dan Evans\, assistant deputy associate administrator for research\, NASA’s Science Mission Directorate\n– David Spergel\, president\, Simons Foundation and chair of NASA’s UAP independent study team \nTo participate in-person or by phone\, media must RSVP no later than two hours before the start of the event to Jennifer Dooren at: Jennifer.m.dooren@nasa.gov. The NASA Headquarters Mary W. Jackson building is located at 300 E St. SW in Washington\, D.C. \nNASA’s media accreditation policy is available online. \nThe UAP independent study team is a counsel of 16 community experts across diverse areas on matters relevant to potential methods of study for unidentified anomalous phenomena. NASA commissioned the study to examine UAP from a scientific perspective and create a roadmap for how to use data and the tools of science to move our understanding of UAP forward. \nA copy of the UAP study team’s report will be available online before the media event begins at: https://science.nasa.gov/uap/
