And while we have your attention we would like take a moment to thank this year’s major sponsors that are making it possible for AIAA Houston Section to host this great event. The dedication of our sponsors to sharing Space Exploration is exceptional and for that we thank them.

Please join us in giving Thanks to Jacobs Technology, The Boeing Co., and ERC!!

While your anticipation builds for the final details on the Celebration, don’t forget about Space Day @ Discovery Green and these two events as well:

1.)“The Future of Space” Art Contest has less than a week left!
