ROLLING MEADOWS, IL – The Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST) has release the program for the 24th Space Simulation Conference. The conference will be held Nov. 6–9, in Annapolis, Maryland. Technical sessions run from Nov. 7–9 and are preceded by tutorials on Nov. 6. The conference is an international forum in space hardware environmental testing for R&D and qualification. It provides an opportunity for engineers, technicians and scientists from industry, government and academia to present and exchange information and ideas on simulating the space environment to develop and test space mission hardware. Tutorials will include Cryogenic Handling and Safety; Advance Leak Checking Techniques; Vibration Isolation in Space Simulation; and Acoustic Testing on Demand. The technical program will have sessions on Data Acquisition and Analyses; Contamination; New Capabilities and Facilities; Thermal Vacuum Testing; Simulations and Special Topic; and Structural Dynamics Testing. The conference is co-sponsored by NASA, AIAA, ASTM, Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHUAPL). Visit spacesimcon.org for more information, or iest.org/technical/ssc/ssc.htm for online registration.
