The proceedings encourage and promote forward thinking ideas and concepts for the future exploration and utilization of space, which are represented in the papers of these proceedings.Reinventing Space is a conference and exhibition dedicated to one of the space industry s fastest growing sectors organized by the British Interplanetary Society. Over its 82 year history, the BIS has acted as a forum for new and innovative ideas and developments in astronautics, low cost access and utilisation of space. These conference proceedings reflect the largest meeting worldwide in this important sector and the second biggest space event in the UK during 2015. This collection from RIspace brings together industry, agency, government, financiers, academia and end users. The global economic climate is creating demand to reduce expenditure, leading to new challenges and opportunities in the world s space industry. The need to create dramatically reduced cost, more responsive systems and launchers capable of delivering to space quickly, cheaply and reliably has never been more vital.
