Tip
titleAn idea is under construction!

We're hoping to hold a 2-day Space un-conference in Auckland, tentatively the weekend of 15/16 February 2014.

Planning has only just begun, and the things aren't confirmed yet – but please stay tuned.

 

What the heck is a SpaceUp?

For the first space-conference in NZ, we're proposing to go with a variation on the unconference format. What's that you ask? Well check out the video below which describes how SpaceUp DC worked.

While we may tweak things slightly to suit NZ - but the main point it it's an open conference, all about participation - not being a spectator.  You can speak on almost any topic* related to space, space science, exploration, development, etc. 

*Note: This conference is not about UFOs, Green Men, conspiracy theories, etc. We're wanting to help kindle a direction for Space in New Zealand. 

Sound like you?

If you have any interest in the conference – attending, sponsoring, helping organise, etc – then please sign up to the mailing list below, and we'll keep you informed:
