FAQs

Expo during Commercial Space Week is the world’s most focused commercial space event, bringing together the people, organizations, and solutions shaping the industry’s future.

As the event has grown, so has the opportunity. Co-located events, including Space Mobility and SpaceCom, give exhibitors direct access to decision-makers who come to Commercial Space Week with a clear purpose: to find the partners, technologies, and solutions they need to build and strengthen their space capabilities.

The opportunity begins even before Expo. The Global Spaceport Alliance Spaceport Summit, held the day before Expo, convenes spaceport leaders from around the world who are focused on increasing capacity, accelerating development, and sourcing the partners and solutions to make it happen.

As an exhibitor, you’ll gain concentrated access to some of the commercial space industry’s most influential leaders and decision-makers, all in one place, all looking to move the industry forward.

Space Mobility will take place January 12, 2027, during Commercial Space Week in Orlando, Florida.

Co-Located Expo: January 12–14, 2027

Space Mobility is held during Commercial Space Week, co-located alongside SpaceCom | Space Congress and the Global Spaceport Alliance (GSA) Spaceport Summit. Your registration provides access to both the focused Space Mobility programming and the broader 3-day joint exhibit floor. 

This event is designed for professionals across the defense, civil, and commercial space sectors, including: 

• Active-duty military personnel and warfighters 

• Government and defense acquirers and program managers 

• Prime aerospace contractors and system integrators 

• Commercial launch providers and satellite operators 

• Academic and research leaders in space logistics and mobility 

Yes. All Space Mobility conference participants receive full access to the 3-day Expo running January 12–14, 2027. 

Space Mobility focuses on the operational challenges, capabilities, and partnerships required to advance the Space Logistics Enterprise. Key topics include space maneuver, combat power regeneration, force reinforcement and reconstitution, responsive launch, in-space servicing and refueling, transportation and logistics, command and control, infrastructure, and commercial capabilities that support future military space operations.

Programming also examines U.S. Space Force and Space Systems Command priorities, emerging operational requirements, capability gaps, and opportunities for government and industry to move space mobility concepts toward operational capability.

Space mobility is the ability to move and support military equipment and capabilities into, through, and within the space domain. It includes capabilities such as launch, on-orbit maneuver, transportation, servicing, refueling, logistics, and force reconstitution.

For the U.S. Space Force, space mobility is an important part of developing the Space Logistics Enterprise and enabling forces to maneuver, restore combat power, and maintain operational advantage in a contested space domain.

Space mobility is important because national security increasingly depends on the ability to move, support, and restore capabilities in space. As the space domain becomes more contested, military forces need greater flexibility to protect mission capabilities and respond to changing operational needs.

Space mobility advances capabilities such as on-orbit logistics, satellite servicing and refueling, spacecraft maneuver, force reconstitution, and cislunar operations. Together, these capabilities can help strengthen resilience, restore combat power, and give U.S. and allied forces greater operational flexibility and advantage in space.

The Annual GSA Spaceport Summit is the premier international gathering for executive spaceport managers, service providers, policymakers, and launch operators.
