This is a head's up to members of collectSPACE who live in North Carolina or near enough to be able to drive to Durham and Chapel Hill. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is hosting the national SEDS (Students for the Exploration and Development of Space) SpaceVision conference in Durham and Chapel Hill from Oct. 30 - Nov. 2, 2014.

One of the prime speakers at this event will be astronaut Story Musgrave. There will be many other interesting speakers over the course of the conference, such as Lori Garver (former Deputy Administrator of NASA), John Mather (Senior Project Scientist on the James Webb Space Telescope), Rick Tumlinson (Chair of the Board of Deep Space Industries), and Pete Worden (Director of NASA Ames Research Center).

They are also having an event to honor the Mercury 13, and I've been told by an event organizer that they are trying to have one of the Mercury 13 to be in attendance for this. No guarantees on that one, though.

I will be going to this. I hope to see some of you there as well.

All times are CT (US)
