Meeting on Bonding, Adhesion, and Joining of Space Structures

The MP3 meeting enables an exchange of information between the Air Force and the contractor community on ways to prevent problems and minimize schedule and cost impacts on space programs. Updates and changes within the materials community that can facilitate participation in Air Force space programs are also discussed. The meeting this year will highlight recent progress and lessons learned in the areas of bonding and joining of launch vehicle and spacecraft structures and adhesive materials.

In addition to presentations, the meeting will again feature tabletop displays. These displays will provide attendees with the opportunity to directly interact with relevant vendors.
