As the United States, other nations, and industrial leaders move forward with plans to create and maintain a human off-world presence, it is critical to develop the necessary infrastructure, policies and technologies required to sustain human explorers in the harsh space environment. The Space Education and Strategic Applications (SESA) 2024 conference, co-organized by the American Public University System and the Policy Studies Organization, brings together innovators, researchers, and decision-makers within all areas of the space community – astronauts, astro-biologists, engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, educators, associations, and policy makers – to discuss the technological, training, and human factors required to safely support crewed exploration initiatives. SESA 2024 encourages multidisciplinary scholarship and conversations relating to all aspects of human space exploration, including safety, science, technology, education, policy, and workforce preparation. Presenters and attendees will have many opportunities to share current findings, identify challenges and share solutions through rich discussions and networking. Panelists and presenters are invited to submit a summary of their presentations for publication in the SESA 2024 Conference Proceedings, which will be published in the Space Education & Strategic Applications journal.
The event is fully virtual, free, and open to the public. All sessions will be live streamed via Zoom, and the public links to access all the sessions will be posted before the event.
