It’s taken a while, but we’ve put together a Membership Welcome Packet worthy of SD Space. Since we operate solely on membership dues, gifts and donations, we felt we needed to show appreciation for our sustaining membership accordingly.
Basic and Supporting Members will soon receive their Welcome Letter and this year’s patch. Also included is a subscription to our monthly email newsletter, email updates and notice of events and field trips, and checkout access to the Member Library and Archives. Brand new is our Membership card and badge. It can be used for discounts at the Emporium and check-in capabilities at SD Space events. 
Participating in these activities allows members to earn points that accumulate throughout the year. High point earners will be rewarded at the Annual Members Night at the end of the year.
Supporting Level Members will also receive an SD Space t-shirt via a gift certificate and our heart-felt appreciation displayed on the Emporium wall.
If you haven’t already, consider joining SD Space, either at the Basic or Supporting Level. And get involved. Help make your space society even better. We all have something we can give.

The LA Space Salon is a new and unique social event designed to be a reliable outlet within the space community for people to engage with one another, contribute their ideas, pose questions, hear from industry leaders, and coalesce efforts towards a cultural permeation of the values we share about space exploration. Our objective is simple: bring space professionals, enthusiasts and entrepreneurs together in an open discussion about our shared future beyond this world.
Each month, we will have a featured guest who will help us explore humanity’s path forward into space. These events are designed to be deeply engaging and leave time for plenty of mingling. Speakers start their presentations at 8:00 and will be followed up by a round of audience Q&A.
The speaker is followed by LA Space Salon’s open forum. All attendees are encouraged to participate in this months discussion question: “What is the single most important development in the next 5 years for moving the space industry forward? What can we begin to do now to make that a reality?” Come with your thoughts prepared and ready to share!
Please register here
Email events@sdspace.org if you’d like to join SD Space members planning to attend.

Remember July 20th, 1969? Many of you may not, as it’s been 42 years since the Apollo 11 astronauts walked on the Moon. Enjoy this NASA recap of the event.
Then take a moment to remember all of our amazing achievements in space, then and now, and envision our future!
