The Malware Technical Exchange Meeting (MTEM) aims to connect practitioners and researchers through the United States Government, FFRDCs, UARCs, and industry to solve critical, classified malware-related problems in the national security space. MTEM often attracts keynote speakers from major USG agencies, including the NSA, and allows technical staff to connect to senior leadership throughout the US Government. MTEM also allows technical practitioners to share ideas with each other to support their respective customers’ missions. MTEM is unique in the aspect that it allows malware practitioners to discuss topics at a classified level, unlike public cybersecurity conferences.

The workshop objective is to establish a forum to discuss the best approaches for designing, modeling, analyzing, and testing modern space systems for acoustic, vibration, and shock environments.

The Space Parts Working Group (SPWG) is an international forum to disseminate information to the aerospace industry and to resolve problems with high-reliability electronic piece parts needed for space applications.

This year's event is in-person at The Aerospace Corporation in El Segundo, California!

The Spacecraft Thermal Control Workshop, now in its 34th year, provides the aerospace community a forum to share new technology developments, analytical techniques, and lessons learned in spacecraft thermal control.

The Space Power Workshop (SPW) provides an informal, unclassified, international forum for the exchange of ideas and information on space power. Technical presentations on advances in both components and system concepts are presented.

Theme - Advancements in Aerospace Testing: Pushing the Boundaries
The Aerospace Testing Seminar (ATS) has been inspiring engineers, managers, and leaders to share their experiences, discover new methods and procedures, and learn how others are coping with designing and implementing cost effective and affordable test programs. ATS has been providing an invaluable forum for learning and sharing groundbreaking innovations, identifying best practices, and promoting solutions for the aerospace test industry. ATS is here to help participants tackle today’s test challenges head-on.

For 28 years, the Ground System Architectures Workshop has been a key voice for the ground systems community. The 29th annual event, GSAW 2025, invites you to discuss the theme of “Amplifying User Effectiveness: Automation, Augmentation, and AI/ML”

Join in-person for Tutorials, Working Groups, Plenary Presentations, Posters, Technical Exhibits, Evening Sessions, and Classified Sessions. This year, GSAW 2025 emphasizes face-to-face networking for the international ground systems community.

MRQW provides a forum for discussing issues in all areas of microelectronics reliability and qualification for high-reliability and commercial applications. Technical sessions and keynote speakers cover the latest results or work in progress in microelectronics devices.

The Optical Communications Workshop (OCW) is a USG and commercial industry only forum, focused on the continued advancement of space optical communications technologies and systems for national security and civil space applications.

Global events have required the space enterprise to continuously adjust what to build (capability), when to flex (capacity), and how to innovate. Lack of consensus (funding/ sponsorship/etc.) across the community have often left opportunities on the cutting room floor. However, i.ntegrated approaches crafted collaboratively by these communities can achieve outsized success. Several recent strategic intent statements are inspiring and motivating the current space enterprise.

At MSS 2023, let’s pull the thread on these strategic intent documents to understand what specific Calls to Action are needed to move from intent to operations. To frame that discussion, let’s look at what opportunities we’ve missed and obstacles to overcome to achieve the space enterprise’s full potential, and develop CTAs for the enterprise

The New Actors in Space Workshop hosted by the Space Safety Institute will convene on ZoomGov over two half-day sessions, covering the material contained in the New Actors in Space Handbook compiled by the Secure World Foundation. This material will be enhanced with real-time consideration of case studies and discussions on international space policy and legal issues, national space policy and regulations, and responsible space operations.

The Aerospace Corporation will host the Session Two Program, “Increasing Perils of LEO Operations,” for the 23rd Annual SPRSA Small Payload Ride Share Symposium. Aerospace’s Dr. Mark Skinner hosts the session, which will include a number of Aerospace subject matter experts presenting on space safety-related topics,.

Andy Weir – #1 New York Times bestselling author of “The Martian” that became a hit movie – will sit down with Aerospace Futurist Kara Cunzeman to talk about his new book “Project Hail Mary”.

The Systems Engineering Forum virtual events, hosted by The Aerospace Corporation's Corporate Chief Engineer's Office, focuses on applying Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) across the space enterprise, contributing to mission success while fulfilling the digital engineering vision.

The virtual Systems Engineering Forum events springboard from the four very successful face-to-face forums and focus on unique contributions from The Aerospace Corporation to the broad space community. These events are applicable to U.S. government, international organizations, industry, vendors, academia, professional societies, and trade associations.
