New Zealand is no longer just watching the space age from the edge of the map. We are launching, building, researching, regulating, teaching, observing, and imagining what comes next.
As the New Zealand Space Agency marks 10 years, this is a timely moment to look at how far Aotearoa’s space sector has come and where it might go next.
Join invited speakers from across New Zealand’s space community for a Carterton Space Week evening exploring Aotearoa’s growing role in the global space sector. Fresh from the Aerospace New Zealand Summit, this event brings together stories and insights from industry, research, education, policy and international collaboration.
Whether your interest is rockets, satellites, astronomy, Earth observation, space science, aerospace technology, planetary exploration or future careers, this is a chance to hear directly from people helping shape New Zealand’s place in space.
Expect short talks, fresh sector updates, big questions, and a lively conversation about where New Zealand has come from, where we are now, and where we might go next.
Topics may include: rockets, satellites, Earth observation, aerospace innovation, space research, education, international partnerships, and future opportunities for Aotearoa.
