Congressman Jim Bridenstine (R-OK) will address the group during the poster session/reception Wednesday evening at 7:00. His remarks titled Update on the American Space Renaissance Act will touch on how NASA can leverage the private sector when conducting lunar missions as well as the policies needed to ensure free enterprise can occur on the Moon and in cislunar space.
