How can exploration across the Antarctic ready us for going to space? New Zealand is an "Incubation Nation" for the global space economy and already has the ingredients for our own sustainable space industry.
Join this event looking at technology and innovation in the extreme environments of the Antarctic and space.
As part of Techweek ’18, Christchurch brings together local, national and international experts to help attendees understand how exploration in the Antarctic impacts on exploration in space, and how Christchurch and New Zealand can leverage work underway in both fields.
Come and hear from world-class speakers and see the grand final of the inaugural NZ Space Challenge, where regional finalists pitch their Antarctic navigation innovations to a panel of national and international judges.
This event will appeal to those from science, research, technology, innovation, the education ecosystems and anybody who has an interest in the Antarctic and space.
