The Space Frontier Foundation
|
The Space Frontier Foundation is an organization composed of space activists, scientists and engineers, media and political professionals, entrepreneurs, and citizens from all backgrounds and all nations. We are transforming space from a government-owned bureaucratic program into a dynamic and inclusive frontier open to people. We are determined to convert the image held by many young people that the future will be worse than the present, and we reject the idea that the world's greatest moments are in its past.
Our central goal is the large-scale permanent settlement of space. We believe people have the "right stuff' and that everyone will benefit from opening the space frontier. We believe that free markets and free enterprise will become an unstoppable force in the irreversible settlement of this new frontier, and that our world is on the verge of a truly historic breakthrough – cheap access to space.
We are changing the basic assumptions about space. Foundation speakers present a future that excites and inspires citizens from all nations, and through awards and briefings, our ideas are driving the portrayal of space into new directions. According to Dr. Robert Zubrin, "The Space Frontier Foundation is pound for pound the most effective space group in the world." |

| The Advocates are the heart of the Space Frontier Foundation. Each year, at the Foundation's annual business meeting (held in conjunction with our annual conference), the Advocates elect the Board of Directors for the following year. The newly elected Board then elects officers for the following year, including President, Treasurer, and Secretary. For a list of current board members, officers and other members of the Foundation team, click here. |

| The Space Frontier Foundation is very proud of its Board of Advisors, comprised of respected members of the space, media, entertainment, business and scientific communities. These people have chosen to make their names and their time available to us to help us achieve our goals. For more info on our advisors, click here. |
|
| The Space Frontier Foundation gives annual awards to space activists who have made, in the Foundation's view, the greatest contributions that year to opening the frontier. Categories include Service to the Frontier, Vision to Reality, Vision of the Future and Best Presentation of Space. A special award, The Founder's Award, is given each year to honor a space activist for overall and long-term achievement. The awards are presented at the Foundation's annual conference each year, during the awards banquet. For more info on our annual awards, click here. |

History of the Foundation
