: underway 2 pm Thursday and runs through Saturday night.

: This year's theme is "Still A Long Hard Road Ahead"; we plan a

: Transportation law into practical regulations, and we're looking at
: a session on the new spaceports coming onto the scene.  Along, of
: course, with the usual wide variety of progress reports, technical
: backgrounders, viewpoints, and new ideas from various players in
: this burgeoning field.

: Space Access '05 will once again be a mix of the usual suspects and
: some interesting new additions, once again providing an intensive
: informal snapshot of where this fast-moving new cheap space access
: industry has gotten to as of spring 2005.  Be there!
