What is Space Passport?

Delivered with support from Hamilton Secondary College and Children’s University, The Andy Thomas Space Foundation’s Space Passport program is an opportunity for students, teachers, parents and young Australians to engage with leaders in the global space industry.

Free, and open to all – with a focus on Primary and Secondary School students – participants will spend their chosen session exploring the Exhibition Hall at the Australian Space Forum, and learning more about new, existing and emerging career pathways across Australia’s growing space sector.

The Space Passport program encourages students to:

Talk directly to companies currently involved with the Australian Space Sector

Ask companies about current and future careers within their industry

Find out about the school and tertiary pathways needed to enter the discussed careers

Visit and explore the exhibition displays of leading organisations within the space industry, collect stamps and be in the running to win fantastic prizes!
