A rare opportunity to hear directly from inside NASA’s Artemis programme.


This upcoming talk features Carlos Garcia-Galan, Deputy Manager of NASA’s Gateway Program, sharing insights from his work on humanity’s return to the Moon and the longer-term vision for going further.


From building the Gateway lunar station to working in conditions of deep uncertainty, the talk explores the mindset, collaboration, and problem-solving behind large-scale science and engineering — and why making the “impossible” possible is as much about people as it is about technology.


If you’re interested in space, innovation, or how big scientific goals are actually made real, this one’s worth catching.



Tue, 24 Feb; 5:30pm – 6:30pm (NZDT)

University of Waikato – Te Manawaroa Room, Tauranga, New Zealand
