Learn About incorporating microgravity into your R&D using the

Sierra Nevada Dream Chaser®

The Dream Chaser® is scheduled to fly cargo to the International Space Station in 2021, but the vehicle can also be used as an independent orbiting science platform. Huntsville International Airport is applying for permits to land the Dream Chaser® here, which would allow quick access to payloads returning from space. Join us to learn more about the vehicle and how you could use it to advance your research and development. There is no cost to attend, but registration is required.

Speakers include representatives from Sierra Nevada Corporation and Rhodium Scientific, a company specializing life science, mission science and hardware services in microgravity.
