SUMMARY:40th SMALL SATELLITE CONFERENCE\, Aug 23-26\, 2026\, Salt Lake City\, Utah
DESCRIPTION:The 40th Small Satellite Conference will take place August 23-26\, 2026 at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City\, Utah. \nMore information is on the event’s website\, which says: \nThe Clouds Above the Clouds\nCelebrating 40 Years of Collaboration\nOver the past four decades\, the small satellite community has transformed from a dedicated few pioneers working on shoestring budgets into a global ecosystem of commercial\, government\, and academic innovators. This community of collaborators has solved some of the space industry’s most complex challenges\, redefining what’s possible in space. \nToday’s satellite constellations—systems of systems composed of hundreds or even thousands of satellites—collect\, process\, and deliver unprecedented amounts of data with latencies measured in milliseconds. High-speed space networking\, edge processing\, optimized ground infrastructure\, and increased launch opportunities form the foundation of this new era. These “clouds above the clouds” power critical missions in navigation\, Earth and space observation\, communications\, and beyond. \nThe 40th Annual Small Satellite Conference will spotlight the technologies driving constellation success and celebrate the thousands of people whose vision and collaboration have propelled the industry forward over the past four decades. Join us as we celebrate the past\, examine the present\, and shape the future of small satellites. \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:LAUNCH OF CHINA'S CHANG'E-7 ROBOTIC LUNAR MISSION\, window opens Aug 24\, 2026???
DESCRIPTION:China is expected to launch its next robotic lunar lander\, Chang’e-7\, in the second half of 2026. China typically doesn’t announce launch dates in advance\, but outside observers can estimate launch dates by looking at Notices to Airmen (NOTAM’s) near the relevant launch site. \nAndrew Jones\, a free-lance space journalist who closely follows China’s space program\, posted on X that NOTAMs indicate the launch window is open from August 24-31.  That is not a definitive date. \n\nLooks like there’s a NOTAM out indicating that the launch window for the Chang’e-7 lunar south polar landing mission opens at 0000 UTC August 24. Windows of 0000-0400 running through August 31. https://t.co/tnIfWCFT5Z \n— Andrew Jones (@AJ_FI) July 20\, 2026 \n\nChang’e-7 will land at the Moon’s South Pole. The Planetary Society has a useful summary of the mission.
