Space Access '98 is Space Access Society's sixth annual conference on 
the technology, politics, and business of radically cheaper space 
transportation, with increased emphasis this year on the entrepreneurial 
sector.  SA'98 is only six weeks away, Friday evening April 17th through 
Sunday evening April 19th, at the Safari Resort, twenty minutes via 
"Super Shuttle" van from Phoenix airport, in downtown Scottsdale Arizona 
with plenty of fine dining and shopping in easy walking distance.  

Our conference style is informal, with no papers required or proceedings 
published - we try to bring together the players in the emerging cheap 
access industry, ask them for talks on what they think, where they are, 
and where they're headed, and give them an opportunity to talk and make 
deals with each other and other interested parties in an informal 
relaxed atmosphere.  The results have been good to date.  We have 
commitments from Kelly Space & Technology, NASA "Future-X", Pioneer 
Rocketplane, Rotary Rocket, Universal Space Lines, and others, with more 
pending.  (Watch www.space-access.org for additions.)  Be there! 

Call the Safari Resort at 602 945-0721 and mention "Space Access" for 
room reservations at our $64 per night (single or double occupancy) 
conference rate.  Reserve soon - we can't guarantee this rate will be 
available after March 26th. 

Phoenix is a hub for Southwest and America West airlines, and served by 
most of the other majors.  Southwest and Western Pacific in particular 
have some real bargains for those who book early from cities they serve.  
By the way, if you want to head home Sunday night, book your flight 
ASAP, as this is still a time of year when lots of people from colder 
places like to weekend in Phoenix, and flights out on Sunday nights fill 
up early.  (Our formal program ends 6 pm Sunday, but we will keep our 
famous hospitality suite open late Sunday night for those staying over.) 
 
SA'98 registration is $100 in advance, $120 at the door.  $10 off for 
SAS members.  SAS membership is $30/year.  SA'98 student rate $30, no 
SAS membership discount.  (Cash or check only - sorry, we're not set up 
to handle credit cards.)  Mail checks for advance conference 
registration with a printout of this form to: 

      SAS, 4855 E Warner Rd #24-150, Phoenix AZ 85044
