The Space Association of Australia is a non-profit, non-political interest group, whose members are keen to learn about and share with others their excitement and passion for spaceflight and space exploration.

The Association exists to: promote, inform and educate the Australian public on the virtues of the peaceful exploration, utilisation and colonisation of outer space; encourage space research and applications; and provide a regular forum for people to come together to share their knowledge and follow the latest space industry activities and space science developments from around the world.
