SpaceUp Kansas
Sunday, April 29, 2012
12:00 - 5:00 pm

Hosted by Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center

SpaceUp is a space unconference, where participants decide the topics, schedule, and structure of the event. Unconferences have been held about technology, science, transit, and even cupcakes, but this is the first one focused on space exploration.

---SpaceUp is your unconference---

Everyone who attends 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” turn into full-fledged topics.

You will be amazed at what comes out of SpaceUp. Based on similar unconferences in other industries, you might see businesses started, problems solved, projects kicked off, plans hatched, and amazing friendships born.

To learn more about what a SpaceUp is, visit www.spaceup.org
