The 45th Rocky Mountain American Astronautical Society (AAS) Guidance, Navigation and Control (GN&C) Conference will be held February 2-8, 2023 in Breckenridge, Colorado. The event will host topics covering the entire lifecycle of GN&C systems while reflecting some of the most relevant and current topics in the aerospace industry. The diverse attendance and agenda offer interaction with industry, government, and academia personnel in a unique setting with informative state-of-the-art technology exhibits.
Ball Aerospace will have a table at the event featuring GN&C-related products and a STEM table to complement. Learn about our programs and capabilities below.
