The Consortium for Execution of Rendezvous and Servicing Operations (CONFERS) has updated its membership and filed these changes with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission. New members include ClearSpace SA from Switzerland and several U.S.-based companies, while Effective Space from the United Kingdom has left the group. The purpose of the filing is to extend the law that limits how much money can be recovered in antitrust lawsuits against CONFERS. The group plans to continue notifying about membership changes in the future.
Simple Explanation
The Consortium for Execution of Rendezvous and Servicing Operations (CONFERS) is like a group of space friends who work together. They have added some new friends and lost one old friend, and they've told the government about these changes to follow the rules.
