Aerospace Perspectives Series: Space 2050—Our Future Shaped by Today’s Space Technology Advances

This webinar is hosted by AIAA, is presented by Lockheed Martin, and is open to all members of the AIAA and ASCEND communities.

What will the future of space look like in 2050? What technologies will be required to enable future capabilities in space, and how close are we to creating them? The leaders of Lockheed Martin’s space innovation labs will share a vision for the future of space, and showcase key technologies being developing to expand space missions and humanity beyond our home world.

This webinar invites discussion about the future of space in five areas: a “smart” world enabled by ubiquitous communications, extraplanetary operations, space logistics, mission operations command utilizing artificial intelligence and machine learning, and space defense to strengthen 21st century security. These areas dive deeper into dynamic mission environments and the emerging technological advancements necessary to operate productively and safely.
