Tennessee Valley Interstellar Workshop

THE PURPOSE OF IRG IS TO FACILITATE INTERSTELLAR RESEARCH AND EXPLORATION BY HOSTING REGULAR SUMMIT MEETINGS, ENCOURAGING EDUCATIONAL ADVANCES, PUBLISHING TECHNICAL AND SCIENTIFIC PAPERS, AND SUPPORTING LITERATURE AND CULTURE, ALL IN THE SERVICE OF ENHANCING PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING AND DIALOGUE TOWARD INTERSTELLAR EXPLORATION. IRG WILL ASSIST IN BUILDING A TECHNOLOGICAL, PHILOSOPHICAL, AND ECONOMIC INFRASTRUCTURE THAT ADVANCES THE GOAL OF ESTABLISHING OUTPOSTS THROUGHOUT THE SOLAR SYSTEM AND, FINALLY, ACHIEVING A PATHWAY TO THE STARS.
