“Dear Australian space community,

We regret to inform you that due to extenuating circumstances, Curtin University is no longer able to hold the ASRC 2024 in Perth this year. We are saddened by this situation, especially given all your contributions, your enthusiasm and your support for this year’s event. We deeply regret any inconvenience this has caused you, and we are working to rectify this with our vendors and sponsors. Please reach out to the LOC email if there is anything we can assist with. As always, we remain committed to advocating for inclusion and collaboration in the space community, supporting your research, and celebrating your achievements, so that we may continue to ‘walk together to space’.

Sincerely, the Local Organising Committee Directors”
