USU and WSU are collaborating to explore a Space and Defense Research Institute. Together, they are equipped to propel research in the space and defense fields to the next level.

All around the world, Logan is known as a hub for the space industry, particularly for small satellites. A major contributor to that industry, however, has outgrown the Cache Valley city.

In this episode, USU President Elizabeth Cantwell talks to Dr. Jed Hancock, President of the Space Dynamics Laboratory about advancing research and education in the field of space exploration.

Nearly 15 years after its assembly in Logan, this NASA spacecraft’s mission has exceeded all hopes.

The move was announced Monday after the event's chair noted that the conference has overgrown the infrastructure of Logan. This year alone, there are about 3,700-3,800 attendees all traveling from nearly 40 countries.
