Two ways to join the Canadian Space Society: 1. Through the CSS website

ATTENTION SPACE COMPANIES! Consider Joining as a Corporate Member | | 2. Corporate MembershipCorporate members gain a number of paid memberships for their employees, based on the level of membership. PLUS many, many other benefits. Reasons to Join Many of the people who have joined the CSS have done so out of adesire to "do something" to contribute to space development efforts. A common feeling is that while an individual may not be able to do much on his or her own, more could be accomplished by joining with a group of like-minded people. The CSS firmly stands by this idea. Members have been involved in advisory groups to the Canadian Space Agency, and have helped run letter-writing campaigns and petitions to Parliament to encourage more "home-grown" space-related activity, along the lines of the highly successful Canadian designed and operated MOST microsatellite, along with international co-operation. Manned space exploration has fallen into the doldrums in recent years with the terrible accidents and problems associated with the space shuttle and space station. However, public interest in the current scientific probes to the planets (Cassini and the Mars Rovers) and the activity associated with the X-Prize projects show that space exploration and development remain important issues in the public eye,and deserve our support. To accomplish these goals, we ask you to join or renew your support of the CSS so you may keep abreast of developments in the Canadian spacecommunity and help us to make a difference in the years ahead.
