LRS supported the Midwest Space Development Conference & the MSDC Corporation

At MSDC '94, we introduced "Moon Garden #1", the first painting ever attempted exclusively with simulated lunar materials.

MSDC, after a failed attempt to come back from a hiatus for their 13th conference, has disolved itself. It is history, but history to be proud of.

LRS supports the Space Frontier Conference held every fall in Los Angeles, California.
