The DC Chapter of SFA, in partnership with the National Spacepower Center (NSpC) and AE Industrial Partners, presents our latest "Spacepower Series" --Strategic Launch: Spacepower, Deterrence, and the Economy. This half‑day forum will bring together senior leaders from the U.S. Space Force, NRO, NASA, the Department of Commerce, and the commercial launch industry to examine the evolving launch enterprise underpinning national spacepower. Through keynotes, fireside chats, and panels, participants will explore the strategic, operational, and economic dimensions of the National Security Space Launch (NSSL) program. Discussions will focus on strengthening cross‑sector collaboration, advancing launch resiliency, and ensuring assured access to space in an increasingly contested domain. This event will provide a strategic venue for aligning defense, civil, and commercial launch efforts that drive America’s space advantage
