Space Access '07 agenda & info

Space Access '07
March 22-24, Phoenix Arizona
Conference Information

Space Access '07, our annual conference on the technology, politics, and
business of radically cheaper space transportation, is two weeks off -
time to book your flights and rooms, NOW, if you haven't already. Our
hotel is officially sold out for our dates - it's worth checking with
them in case cancellations open up a room or two (if you do get a room
our "space access" rate is still good) but chances are you'll need to
find someplace nearby.

SA'07 is at the Best Western Grace Inn, 10831 S 51st St in Phoenix
Arizona, the same place as SA'06. Call the Grace Inn at 1 800 843-6010
for room reservations, and tell them you're attending "space access" for
our $92.29 full American breakfast-included rate. (That's only $99 even
after taxes.) The Grace Inn is ten miles from the Phoenix Airport in a
pleasant suburban neighborhood, with shopping and dining a short walk
away, free parking, and a free airport shuttle bus. (If you're driving,
take Interstate 10 to the Elliot Road exit about ten miles east of
downtown Phoenix. From the top of the ramp, you should be able to see
the Grace Inn sign - it's one block west on Elliot to 51st st, turn left,
take your first left just past the gas station on the corner.)
