"In-Space Manufacturing Technologies "



Special Presentation - Please come and make it a big success!



In response to popular demand (e.g. people wanted to get a speaker from the Seattle Space Industry), we are pleased to have Rob Hoyt, CEO of Firmamentum & Tethers Unlimited, Inc. as our guest speaker on October 3rd. Rob's two companies are focused on space tethers and 3D printing in space. See below for his bio.



Rob's talk is titled "In-Space Manufacturing Technologies ", although I'm sure he'll touch on the tethers as well.



Be sure to RSVP and to invite guests. It would be nice have a good crowd for Rob and will help us attract other speakers in the future. But even if you don't RSVP and decide at the last minute, be sure to join us.



As incentive I'll be bringing cookies!
