The World Space Congress 2002 is the second joint congress of the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) and International Astronautical Federation (IAF), with its associates the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) and the International Institute of Space Law (IISL). The Congress will be hosted by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) under the auspices of the United States National Academy of Sciences (NAS). The first World Space Congress, held in Washington, D.C. in 1992, was the largest gathering of space professionals, with more than 10,000 scientists, engineers, business executives, government officials and academics from more than 70 countries attending.
