Apogee is Mach 30’s annual gathering for its volunteers and fans. One part conference, one part public outreach, one part Makerfaire, and one part party, Apogee 3 has something for everyone. Mach 30 has long held that meeting in person is an essential part of our work and key to accomplishing our mission of hastening humanity into a spacefaring civilization. So, join us at Techshop, this August for a chance to meet your fellow volunteers and the Mach 30 Board in person and to celebrate our shared passion for open source spaceflight.
