As an Emerging Space Nation Israel Makes a Statement in Hosting the International Astronautical Congress, SpaceRef
“Israel’s space program was born out of military need, but in recent years the civil space program has received an infusion of funding and next week it will host the annual International Astronautical Congress in Jerusalem.”
Marc’s note: Charlie Bolden will take part in the annual Heads of Agencies plenary next Monday.
I will be at Congress covering it with stories to be posted here.
