SUMMARY:The Impact of Impacts: An Interactive & Synchronous Virtual Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us\, as we follow impactors on their journeys through space as they hurtled towards Earth\, and as we examine the subsequent long- and short-term consequences for habitability. \nWe’ll tackle topics including: \n– What’s headed towards the Earth\n– Earth prior to impact\n– What happens at the point of impact\n– How is the impactor and target material processed\n– Elsewhere in the solar system \nWe’ll discuss open questions and potential areas to develop new research projects. \nPre-recorded talks will be available prior to the workshop. The workshop agenda and registration link can be accessed at: https://www.prebioticchem.org/about-3

SUMMARY:Mars and the Earthlings: Can we\, and should we\, go to Mars?
DESCRIPTION:This training school stemmed from the European Astrobiology Institute’s Project Team “Mars and the Earthlings”\, whose goal is to provide reliable information and foster healthy\, evidence-based discussions on human Mars exploration. This project team gathers space exploration experts including astronauts\, astronomers\, planetary scientists\, geologists\, legal experts\, biologists\, philosophers and economists. The lectures will be given by some of them. The learning contents draw largely from the book « Mars and the Earthlings: A Realistic View on Mars Exploration and Settlement »\, written by Project Team members and published in January 2025 by Springer. Among the topics to be covered are the Martian geology and climate\, robotic missions to Mars\, crewed orbital flight\, permanent settlements on Mars\, and terraforming. On top of technical and scientific challenges\, each topic will be looked at from economic\, legal\, societal\, psychological\, and medical perspectives.

SUMMARY:Where Skies Meet: Multidisciplinary Views of Planet and Exoplanet Atmospheres
DESCRIPTION:The IAA-CSIC Severo Ochoa Advanced School “Where skies meet: multidisciplinary views of planet and exoplanet atmospheres” is designed for researchers interested in the study of planetary atmospheres both in the Solar System and in exoplanets\, aiming to bridge the two communities. The school will provide an up-to-date perspective on the latest developments in the study of Solar System atmospheres and in the emerging field of exoplanetary atmospheres\, reflecting the rapid evolution of planetary science. While researchers at all career stages are welcome\, preference will be given to early-stage researchers (PhD researchers and early postdocs).The topics covered by the school include planetary formation\, planetary interior and its link with the atmosphere\, atmospheric modeling\, observational techniques\, radiative transfer and retrieval schemes\, as well as 1-day Workshop on potential Venus-analogue exoplanets. In addition to topical lectures going beyond textbook knowledge\, the school will also schedule hands-on sessions focused on the practical use of  state-of-the-art tools in the field given by their developers\, promoting interaction between lecturers and participants. Given the strongly interactive nature of the school\, only in-person attendance will be possible.
