FLIGHT OPPORTUNITIES COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE WEBINAR
In-Space Manufacturing Roundtable
Sharing Lessons Learned and Remembering Curtis Hill
August 6, 2025
Abstract
In-space manufacturing offers a high-quality alternative to manufacturing on Earth with the potential to expand the space economy as well as support long-duration missions. Join us for a roundtable discussion on best practices for flight testing in-space manufacturing technologies.
Remembering Curtis Hill
The in-space manufacturing community recently suffered the unexpected loss of Curtis Hill, a longtime subject matter expert at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, AL. Curtis fostered many technologies through Flight Opportunities and made a significant impact on the field of in-space manufacturing. This session brings together some of the many researchers who flight tested payloads in collaboration with Curtis as a way to reflect on his legacy and continue his commitment to sharing lessons learned and supporting other researchers. We encourage all researchers to join us, including those who worked with Curtis and those who wish to learn from his legacy.
