SUMMARY:[Partnered] Developing Norms of Behaviors for Near Earth Space: Safety\, Security\, and Sustainability
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Moriba Jah\, Associate Professor of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at The University of Texas at Austin and Program Lead of the Strauss Center’s Space Security and Safety Program\, will join the LBJ School for a conversation on developing norms of behavior for near earth space. This talk is co-sponsored by the Strauss Center and is tailored for students interested in learning more about space law and policy and the various opportunities at and beyond UT for this field of study. \nDr. Jah will define some key metrics including transparency\, predictability\, and accountability\, and explain how these metrics can help to build a more equitable and safe space environment. Using relevant historical and current examples\, Dr. Jah will delineate how these metrics can help address some of the most pressing issues in space today. Dr. Jah will also discuss how the space community can work to even out the knowledge disparities which exist among space actors in order to standardize practices among space actors\, boosting space security and safety. The role of traditional ecological knowledge in space operations will also be discussed\, as Dr. Jah will highlight the valuable lessons learned from this irreplaceable base of knowledge. \nThe talk will conclude with a brief overview of the opportunities available at and beyond UT for students who would like to get involved in space law and policy. \n  \nThis is a partnered webinar supported by SGAC’s Space Law and Policy Project Group \n  \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:[Partnered] The New Space Economy: vision and perspectives
DESCRIPTION:The New Space Economy: vision and perspectives of the next Space Generation from the 6 UN Regions\n  \nThe space sector is living a profound transformation. The paradigms of the New Space Economy are constantly evolving and opening to integration of space into society and economy\, as the space sector becomes an enabler of growth in other sectors. This leads to widely renowned new trends such as unprecedented level of private investment in space ventures\, a growing Venture Capital (VC) market\, development of commercial activities worldwide based on the concept of startups\, and more competitive and uncertain markets. \nIn this technological and business environment\, a new worldwide space generation also moves its steps with the role of active actors. Students and young professionals have become more and more aware of the role of space in society and many new space related activities are a direct response to their precise needs and views in the context of the emerging space economy trends.  \nSpace Generation Advisory Council (SGAC) and Fondazione E. Amaldi recognize the role of young generations and bring together Space Young Professionals from across the globe to discuss at New Space Economy Expoforum 2020 the New Space Economy and the trends through the eyes and the work experiences of new space generations. The discussion will focus on the different regional perspectives as we all share a common mission towards the involvement of the next generation of space leaders in the future of the Space Economy.  \n  \n  \nCLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS \n \nProgramme\n2:00 – 2:10 PM: \nWelcome from the moderators: \nAntonio Scannapieco (SGAC Italy NPoC) \nEleonora Lombardi (SGAC RC Europe) \n2:10 – 2:20 PM: \nOscar I.

SUMMARY:Global Space Congress
DESCRIPTION:What is the Global Space Congress?\nThe Global Space Congress is a strategic gathering of global space industry leaders. Promoting the worldwide industry of space\, the Congress brings together over 700 key space agencies\, commercial space\, academia and end users of space services to evaluate the biggest opportunities in the space sector and to get exposure to the world’s most vibrant and energetic new space programmes. Focused on partnerships\, the Congress enables these leaders to focus on collaborative development and the implementation of core space and satellite technology strategies\, bringing global and regional economic benefits. \nThe Global Space Congress is where space policies are defined and strategies developed; where new applications for space technology are showcased and the development of highly skilled technical workforces to support national development are promoted. It hosts discussions and initiatives that will have a practical and lasting impact on the overall development of the space sector in the Middle East and globally. \nWhat are the SGAC activities at the Global Space Congress?\nSince 2018\, SGAC is an official association partner of the Global Space Congress and in particular their Next Gen programme. \n1. Speed Mentoring: \nIn a world where technology changes faster than jobs are created\, the need for mentoring is bigger than ever. Mentorship is identified as a key driver of success and is highly sought after by young people. However\, youth often find it hard to source a mentor. In 2019 the Global Space Congress and Next Gen Leaders\, in partnership with the Space Generation Advisory Council\, fill this gap by inviting experts from the space industry who will share their experience and offer advice to young professionals and students. \n2. Panel on “The Role of Risk Taking and Effective Leadership” \nIn 2019 the Global Space Congress and Next Gen Leaders\, in partnership with the Space Generation Advisory Council\, explore the role of risk taking and how it serves an effective leadership. In the context of space industry\, risk aversion is not an option. Find out why risk is an opportunity\, how to be smart about risk and how you can lead through risk taking. The experts’ panel session will be followed by structured breakout group discussions offering direct engagement and interaction between the delegates and the panelists. \nLink to registrationLink to scholarship

SUMMARY:Find an Asteroid 2018
DESCRIPTION:Space Generation Advisory Council (SGAC) and International Astronomical Search Collaboration (IASC) are sponsoring a special asteroid search campaign during the month of November\, which will run for 4 weeks from the October 31st to November 28th\, 2018. \nYour team will have a chance to be selected amongst 30 schools and teams worldwide to participate in the Find an Asteroid 2018 search campaign. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBackground\nAsteroids are rocky\, airless worlds that orbit our Sun\, but are too small to be called planets. Tens of thousands cluster in the main asteroid belt\, a vast doughnut-shaped ring between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Asteroids within a close proximity to Earth are called Near-Earth Objects\, or NEOs. \nAsteroids can be classified based on their size\, composition\, colour\, position in the solar system and even how they were formed! They can range in size from Vesta—the largest at about 329 miles (530 kilometers) in diameter – to bodies that are less than 33 feet (10 meters) across. \n(Fun fact: The total mass of all the asteroids combined is less than that of our Earth’s Moon.) \nIt important that we learn more about asteroids\, through further research and documentation since asteroids can tell us about the origins of our solar system and even the origins of life itself. Asteroids are discovered with the help of (optical) telescopes by amateur astronomers\, using specialized software even you can make such a discovery! \nSo to continue this initiative\, Space Generation Advisory Council (SGAC) together with International Astronomical Search Collaboration (IASC. pronounced ”Isaac”) is giving your team the opportunity to make your own discoveries by participating in the Find an Asteroid Campaign 2018! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSearch Campaign\nTeams receive telescopic images\, only hours old and taken along the ecliptic. Using the software Astrometrica\, they can accurately measure the time and position of asteroids moving in the background. \nThese measurements can then be recorded in a report to be sent to IASC. \nWeather permitting\, each team receives 25 unique sets of images during the campaign. Team members can download each image set and search them for asteroids just hours after they have been taken along the celestial ecliptic at the University of Hawaii (Pan-STARRS). \nTeams use the Astrometrica software\, with IASC teachers who have participated in asteroid search campaigns available through the website to answer questions by email and help with learning how to properly use the software. \nEach year 1000 teams participate from more than 80 countries. Since starting in October 2006\, over 1500 asteroids have been discovered\, of which 52 have been numbered by the International Astronomical Union (Paris). Numbered asteroids are recorded in the world’s official minor planet catalog and can even be named by their student discoverers.

It will provide attendees with new and interesting perspectives to take into the ISS R&D Conference and beyond. \nApply HereFormatBreakout Accelerated Discussion Session\nNextGen participants attending the event will be assigned breakout groups for the accelerated discussion session. Each group will be discuss a pressing topic related to the overarching theme of the ISS R&D Conference. The groups will be moderated by invited senior industry professionals. \nThe accelerated discussion session will conclude with a summary presentation from each group. Each breakout group will nominate one participant to report out a summary of their group’s discussions to all participants. These summaries will be compiled into a report for presentation at UN COPUOS. \n\n\n\nCooperation Across Space\nWith space assets multiplying\, and exploration projects becoming increasingly complex\, the need for international and cross-industry collaboration have  arguably never been greater. What are some of the key areas that would necessitate or be benefitted by additional international collaboration? What learnings\, policies\, or other mechanisms for positive collaboration from the ISS should we bring to future exploration? What are the core policies in place today that are either facilitating or preventing effective collaboration\, are they appropriate\, and what are your recommendations on how they should change if at all? What cultural challenges must we address to enable future long term habitation and colonization of space?\n\n\nNext Generation Space Research: Leveraging the Orbiting Laboratory\nISS and beyond – what’s the next technology leap that will affect the future of space research? What are the key changes or developments needed to get there? Do any current national or international policies need to be adapted? In addition\, as we extend our research to future orbital platforms (lunar and earth orbiting)\, are there new opportunities and technologies to leverage that the ISS does not offer?\n\n\nHuman Factors in Space\nAs we begin to not only send more people to space\, but have them stay for longer periods of time\, what are the challenges we still have to face? Companies are beginning to offer astronaut experiences for short term stays in space. What responsibility do those commercial entities have to the wellbeing of their customers\, and what kinds of processes and policies need to be put in space to protect both sides?\n\n\nEntrepreneurship and Investment\nWhat are the main qualities of a company that investors look for in a company? Where are the newest companies coming from (universities\, government spin offs\, former specialized employees\, etc)? What have the current trends been in space investment\, and how do current VCs discover and develop their portfolios in the space field? What are key areas that are ripe for investment in the space economy? What kinds of orbital applications could become investment opportunities in the long term (assuming human or technologically developed presence in earth or cis-lunar orbit)?\n\n\nSpace Communications’ Challenges and Technology\nWith increasingly complex exploration programs on the horizon (Moon\, Mars\, Europa\, DSG\, etc)\, what are some of the upcoming challenges that they will face? What are some of the newest civil and commercial communications technologies that can be utilized to either complement or replace existing communications infrastructure? What is the existing ground based infrastructure that supports our science programs\, and how will they evolve in coming decades? \nWhat is the role of new and traditional commercial companies in future communications development? Do they have different approaches?\n\n\n\nSpeed Mentoring Session\nSenior professionals will be invited to sit down face-to-face with small groups of New Generation participants for a networking opportunity\, and to provide leadership perspective and valuable career advice. The mentors will be rotated from group to group. \nSchedule09:00 | Welcome Note and Icebreaker09:30 | Breakout Accelerated Discussion Session11:30 | Lightning Discussion Summaries12:00 | Lunch13:00 | Speed Mentoring14:30 | Closing KeynoteRegistration Fees\nThe SGAC/AAS Next Generation event is free! \nPlease note – lunch is not provided\, however\, there are a number of restaurants around the area to grab a quick bite to eat. \nIf you plan on attending the ISS R&D Conference (23-26 July 2018)\, the following discounts apply: \n\nFull Time Students: $250 (with valid student ID)\nParticipants of the NextGen event: $400 (discounted from $925).\n\nA dedicated SGAC registration code will be provided to participants of the SGAC/AAS NextGen Event to utilize the discount. \nHow to Apply\nAll students and young professionals are eligible to participate in this event\, however space is limited to maximum of 40 people.
