The Space Resources Roundtable
Leading Discussion for In-Situ Resource Utilization
Joining individuals from the space exploration community, the financial sector, and mining and minerals industries, the SRR seeks to bring together interested parties to discuss issues related to the In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) of lunar, asteroidal and martian resources.
The Roundtable is a continuing series of such engagements, each designed to strengthen the communication and technical ties between these sectors.
