How to launch your research or business into orbit with NASA
NASA astronauts currently aboard the International Space Station join experts at SXSW 2024 to discuss how the public can engage with space-based research. This session provides a roadmap for entrepreneurs and scientists to leverage orbital technology and participate in space exploration.
During the 2024 South by Southwest conference in Austin, Texas, astronauts Jeanette Epps and Loral O'Hara connected live from the International Space Station with experts on the ground. The discussion highlights practical pathways for individuals and businesses to fly scientific experiments in space and advance their professional projects using orbital infrastructure.
Beyond research opportunities, the panel offers guidance on finding inspiration from the daily lives of those working in orbit. The session also covers accessible ways for the public to track the station's path, providing instructions on how to spot the laboratory as it orbits the globe.
