Colorado Springs. Colo., September 1, 2021--The 36th edition of the Space Symposium held at the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs from August 23-26, 2021 was the first major industry event to be held live since the start of the pandemic in 2020. Organizers estimated the attendance at between 7-8,000 from 25 countries who came to see a full slate of distinguished speakers in various panels and keynotes and 200 companies exhibiting on the show floor. With the exception of everyone required to wear a mask indoors, the show was much like the shows pre-pandemic with the usual receptions and networking activities.
