The 2026 Boston Human Spaceflight Symposium will be hosted at:

MGH Simches Research Center
185 Cambridge St
Boston, MA 02114

Transportation and Parking:

Parking in Boston is expensive. Unfortunately we are unable to offer validation for parking at this event. If you park in the lot adjacent to or adjoining the conference center you will be charged ~$60 per day.

We recommend using public transportation to get to the conference center rather than parking. There are two closeby T-stops that are a short walk (within 2 blocks) to the Simches Center.

From the Blue Line, the Bowdoin stop is closest (note there is no elevator at Bowdoin, but there is an elevator at the Government Center Stop just 2 blocks away).

From the Red Line, the Charles/MGH stop is closest and there is an elevator there.

The Thursday evening social will be held at the Paul S. Russell, MD Museum of Medical History and Innovation at Massachusetts General Hospital located at 2 N Grove St, Boston, MA 02114.
