Workshop: Microsatellites And Their Use In Planetary And Astrobiology Research

Tartu, Estonia, 24-31 August 2024

The aim of the workshop will be to enable students and early career scientists to design micro-and nanosatellite missions tackling scientific themes and target objects they have chosen themselves previously.

The workshop will consist of three parts:

• a lectured part consisting of in-depth talks on the scientific background of the chosen mission themes and on important issues in satellite technology
• a mission designing part where attendees plan these endeavours in detail with the help of satellite technologists
• a final presentation of all the projects

PLEASE NOTE: A limited number of bursaries for students and early career scientists (up to 8 years from their first Ph. D. in a related field) from European Astrobiology Institute institutions will be available.

Application deadline is 1 May 2024.
