 Register for the ConferenceAbout the ConferenceAs space exploration enters 
 a new and dynamic phase, rapid technological progress across many disciplin
 es is reshaping how humanity approaches the exploration and utilization of 
 space resources. Addressing these challenges requires close cooperation bet
 ween diverse scientific and engineering communities.The Space Resources Con
 ference provides an open and interdisciplinary forum for discussing state-o
 f-the-art technologies, emerging concepts, and key challenges related to sp
 ace exploration and the responsible use of extraterrestrial resources. A ce
 ntral goal of the conference is to promote sustainable approaches that supp
 ort both the future of space activities and the protection of Earth’s envir
 onment.The 2026 edition places a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary colla
 boration, bringing together experts from engineering, planetary science, ro
 botics, materials science, economics, and related fields. Participants will
  explore innovative pathways for space resource utilization, in-space manuf
 acturing, and the development of future off-Earth infrastructure.Building o
 n the success of previous editions, the conference will once again host an 
 international community of researchers, practitioners, and industry represe
 ntatives. The program includes plenary and invited lectures, technical sess
 ions, poster presentations, panel discussions, and industry-focused contrib
 utions. A range of social and cultural events will further support networki
 ng and knowledge exchange among participants.TopicsHabitats, Bioastronautic
