What is Massachusetts Space Week, organized by the Space Consortium?
Massachusetts Space Week is an annual, week-long celebration that seeks to bridge the gap between academia and the broader community and to foster a shared enthusiasm for space science, through engaging events such as a Space Film Festival, a Space Career Fair, and more than 80 space events statewide.
Launched in 2017, The Space Consortium is an MA-based 501(c)(3) non-profit led by academics and researchers working in space-related fields which organizes a series of space education & outreach initiatives, including Massachusetts Space Week and The Space Consortium (SC) Space Days, to help democratize space knowledge and connect MA-based space experts and enthusiasts with each other and with the public. Supported by the Massachusetts Space Grant, Massachusetts Space Week and The SC Space Days stand as testaments to grassroots collaboration & community effort among space experts across the state, aiming to make space science accessible to all.
