SpaceUp is a space unconference for people who care deeply about humanity’s future in space and want to play a part in it.
An unconference means that the attendees (read: you) decide the topics, schedule, and structure of the event. Anyone attending SpaceUp is encouraged to give a talk, moderate a panel, or start a discussion. Sessions are proposed and scheduled on the day they’re given, which means the usual “hallway conversations” often turn into full-fledged topics.

I attended the recent Space Access Conference in Phoenix presented by Henry Vanderbilt and the Space Access Society.”Space Access conferences are designed to let people who are serious about low-cost space transportation get together, trade information, make deals, and learn useful things” (http://www.parabolicarc.com/page/2/?s=space+access+%2711&submit_x=23&submit_y=12&submit=Search).
I’m listing a series of blogs that covered the details of the conference. If you love rockets, this conference is for you.
