Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jul 11, 2005
The theme of this year's Return To The Moon conference is "Reality Check" and represents the fact that the time for tangible results has arrived.

To illustrate a "reality check" for the entrepreneurial approach to lunar development a panel session on Enabling Technologies will be held to highlight those companies who are building real businesses for lunar oriented markets.

The panel session will be an opportunity for each company to be able to pitch itself and its products to an audience of other entrepreneurs, NASA leaders, media, and potential investors. No other lunar specific venue provides the same level of opportunity for developing new business.

The panel organizers are looking for up to ten additional companies to showcase during the panel session. The criteria for inclusion in the showcase is a certain level of "reality" to the company.

This includes realistic financial projections, funding, or some progress toward actual development of a product or technology. The panel organizers will use their own best business judgement to determine if a candidate company is on a development path sufficient to become a viable business.

Companies that are interested in participating should contact Michael Mealling at [email protected] or call +1-678-581-9656.

While the Earth is tilted at an angle of about 23 degrees, the moon's tilt is just over 1 degree. Because of this, the summits of some lunar crater rims are sunlit over very long periods.
