A Midland lunch-hour briefing on AST SpaceMobile satellite production and direct-to-device connectivity. The organizer's registration page now says the session is at capacity.
Advance registration is required and the organizer currently marks the event at capacity. The page does not confirm a walk-up line or waitlist; do not travel expecting admission without an existing confirmation.
Texas Space Coalition schedules the session for Tuesday, October 6, from 11:30 a.m.–1 p.m. Central. Its current RSVP page says the event is at capacity. People who already registered can sign in to manage their session, but the organizer does not publish a walk-up policy or waitlist on the page. Use the organizer's contact form before traveling if you do not already have a confirmation.
John Joyce, vice president of production at AST SpaceMobile, is the announced speaker. The coalition says the discussion will focus on satellite construction, manufacturing and testing for the company's direct-to-device connectivity work. Midland Development Corporation is the presenting organization. The Launch and Learn series is designed as a lunch-hour conversation with an industry speaker and live questions rather than a museum tour.
The program is at the Permian Basin Petroleum Museum, 1500 Interstate 20 West, Midland, TX 79701. The museum says the I-20 service-road entrance is one-way westbound from Rankin Highway; a second entrance is available from Garfield Street via Stokes Road and the STEAM Education Center drive. The museum lists free loaner wheelchairs and asks visitors to call 432-683-4403 with venue questions. Confirm the event room and any specific access arrangement with the organizer or museum before arrival.
Current organizer, museum and company photographs were reviewed, but no exact-event or venue image with a verified reusable website license was found. This page therefore links to the original sources rather than copying, hotlinking or rehosting their images. Recheck the RSVP page for a capacity or schedule change before traveling.
