Nearly thirty years ago, man first set foot on the Moon. Conventional wisdom says it’ll be at least another thirty years before private citizens will routinely live, work, and play in space. But there is a revolution underway, fueled by the power of free enterprise, that is speeding up the opening of the greatest human frontier of all time. It will change your future. If you want to get the inside story, then join the space pioneers who are leading the way at Space Frontier Conference VII, Columbus Day weekend, October 9-11, 1998, at the Sheraton Gateway Hotel, Los Angeles International Airport, CA.
“This conference is THE EVENT for anyone who wants to understand or become a part of the human breakout into space,” says conference chair Kerinia
Cusick. “We’re assembling key leaders — from CEOs to congressmen, NASA
managers to national reporters, financiers to film makers, scientists to
science fiction writers — all of whom are passionate about making the routine use of space a reality.”
Entitled “Space: The Revolution Is Now!” and presented by the Space
Frontier Foundation, the conference is co-sponsored by: FINDS, the Foundation for the Non-Governmental Development of Space; ProSpace, the citizen’s space lobby; and Rotary Rocket Company. A partial list of confirmed speakers includes:

Technology; - Dr. Alan Binder, Principal Investigator of the Lunar Prospector

“This is the only conference where you will find such an eclectic mix of
visionaries sharing ideas and taking steps to turn exciting visions of space into reality,” continued Cusick. “Whether you are an entrepreneur with a dream, an investor with a desire to capitalize on this exploding industry, a job seeker looking to work for an innovative company, or a citizen who is tired of the gloom and doom scenarios painted for tomorrow and simply wants to know what the next century will really look like — you need to be there!”

September 10, 1998, and $220 thereafter. This rate includes all receptions, luncheons, and the Awards Banquet.
