INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION ON SPACE EXPLORATION OVERVIEW With the future of the International Space Station program still uncertain, the recent release of the “60 Day Architecture Study”, and the recent successful launch of China’s Shenzou-6 we felt that it was the right time to organize a policy workshop, in Washington, on space exploration and international cooperation where the perspectives of both the US Government and possible international partners could be discussed. As part of this effort, the Human Space Exploration Initiative at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) is hosted a major conference on the international cooperation and space exploration in Washington, DC on November 1st, 2005.
