IAC#2 - Team Kingston

There are fair few Kingston people attending the IAC, a well as Barnaby and myself. Here are some of them.

First up is Kingston alum Abdul Ismail. After working in the USA for a NASA subcontractor after graduation and attending the ISU Master's programme in Strasbourg, France Abdul set up his own company and now splits his time between the Europe , the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia (just behind him you can see EADS Astrium's rover testbed "Bridget").


Another Kingston alum is Flis Holland (former chair of both KUSEDS and UKSEDS) who, supported by the Arts Catalyst has organised Less Remote at the IAC, a symposium about the future of space exploration from the the arts and humanities perspective which has attracted a wide range of international participants.
