AIAA’s free space policy conference

Part of the AIAA Air and Space Symposium 2004 next month in Washington is a one-day event on April 21 titled the AIAA International Policy Seminar. While the name makes it sound fairly generic, the emphasis of the event will be on space policy, according to the online agenda: Congressman Sherwood Boehlert, chairman of the House Science Committee, is the keynote speaker, and most of the sessions will explictly focus on space policy, both US and European. While the overall three-day symposium has a $299 registration fee, you can register for just the International Policy Seminar at no charge.
