Additionally, Future Tech Live has expanded their space to make room for more opportunities and activations for the attendees. This gave them plenty of room for what they are calling a “Space Zone”. There attendees will get the ability to walk on the moon in a virtual lunar mission, visit UCSD’s planetarium, and virtually travel to the International Space Station.

On the first day, they are even having a Blockchain gathering, so if you are a little unaware of what crytocurrency is, then you can learn more at Future Tech Live!
