SWF’s Agnieszka Lukaszczyk Selected as Judge for Space Technology Hall of Fame

The Space Foundation’s 2010 Space Technology Hall of Fame Inductees are to be chosen by an expert panel of judges that includes Agnieszka Lukaszczyk, space policy consultant for Secure World Foundation.

The 2010 judges were selected for their diverse and wide-reaching perspectives on space and technology.

Joining Lukaszczyk in the judging includes a senior NASA advisor, space policy experts, executives of major aerospace companies, the superintendent of one of Colorado’s largest school districts, a famed aerospace journalist, and a senior member of Germany's national research center for aeronautics and space.

The judges select inductees based on economic benefit, public awareness, societal benefit, longevity, and public/private/partnership investment.

The 2009 inductees were a life-saving food supplement derived from algae and space shuttle-based aerodynamic vehicle design that has revolutionized large trucks.

Award ceremonies for the 2010 inductees and honorees will be part of the 26th National Space Symposium, which will be held at The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, Colo., April 12-15, 2010.

Conducted by the Space Foundation, the symposium is the premier annual gathering of the global space community.
