We want to sincerely thank all our sponsors who have made
contributions to the Space Flight Laboratory. Without your support, many SFL
educational projects would not be possible. Your generous donations helped
launch Canada's first student satellites into space. Through your commitment
to quality education, the CanX Student Program is able to inspire young
Canadians to pursue their space research and space exploration ambitions.

Space research
is an expensive endeavour but with it also comes new knowledge about our existence
and our place in the universe. Here at SFL, our aim is to provide a cost effective
means for Canadians to realize world-class space missions. Training the space engineers of
tomorrow is an essential part of this objective. We need your help and involvement
to make the dream of space exploration for Canadians a reality. If you or your company
is interested in becoming a sponsor please contact
Dr. Robert E. Zee, manager of SFL,
to discuss sponsorship. For more information about our sponsors please see below.
These companies are the innovative leaders of tomorrow. Please visit their web sites!
Thank you for your interest.
THANK
YOU to all our sponsors!
