Benefit Sharing of Lunar Resource Activities for Africa: analysing the regional and international contexts
ZoomThe webinar will be part of the International Moon Day weekly events. A panel will be organized with representatives of the Moon Village Association (lead by Suyan Malhadas and Chris Bosquillon)and the SGAC Space Law and Policy Project Group “Commercialization of Space Resources in Africa” project (lead by Jéssyka Nunes and Nifemi Awe). Over one hour, four speakers will cover 4 presentations, with half an hour afterwards allocated to questions from participants.
Space Career Pathways & Speed Mentoring Workshop
ZoomThis workshop is part of SGAC's Space Mentoring Program and will be open to existing SGAC mentees as well as registrants of the wider public. It aims to provide additional career development resources for space-interested students and young professionals on navigating space careers in the different regions, and increase mentorship opportunities for the next generation of youth.
Space Career Pathways: A Filipino Scholar’s Perspective
Online PlatformThe space sector is a relatively new industry in the Philippines but has shown plenty of promise. As an emerging space-faring nation, the country focuses on space education and capacity development of young Filipino scientists and scholars.
Our Giant Leap Hackathon 2023: The Sponsors Showcase

Search For Life In Space
ZoomGet the answers to your questions about the search for life in the Universe! Our guest is Dr. Adrienne Kish, the Associate Professor in Astrobiology from Muséum National d'Histoire National (MNHN), France. Her research projects aim to understand what are the limits of life, why such limits exist, and how the conditions found on other planets could affect microbial life as we know it!

SPACEtacular: An interstellar collaboration between PhilSA, BatStateU – AEROESS, and SGAC
ZoomThe Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA), the Batangas State University (BatStateU) - Aerospace Engineering Students' Society (AEROESS), and the Space Generation Advisory Council (SGAC) have joined forces to hold the very first online webinar dubbed “SPACEtacular”, which will take students, researchers, and other young space enthusiasts on an exciting opportunity to learn about the recent advancements in space technology, research, and innovation. This interstellar collaboration will embark on the overview of the Philippine Satellite Program and will uncover the fundamental concepts on lean satellite missions and utilization, small satellite systems engineering, and the general satellite project management process to be delivered by Filipino engineers who pioneered in the development of the Philippine’s small satellites. Join us as we learn their incredible achievements in promoting and sustaining a robust Philippine space ecosystem that adds and creates value in space for and from Filipinos and for the world.

Fast and Accurate Probability of Collision Toolkits for Near-Earth and Cislunar Applications
ZoomWith increasing traffic in near-Earth and Cislunar space, it has become essential to develop fast and accurate methods of predicting collisions between space objects. This is an important topic of discussion in current Space Situational Awareness (SSA) domain research. Orbit determination methods provide users with a state and an uncertainty associated with an object in space. This tells the user where the spacecraft is and with what percent certainty. Because there are limited observation resources, it is essential to have the ability to propagate this information to desired times accurately. Generally, this is accomplished using numerical Monte Carlo methods, where a point cloud of millions of points is taken from the initial uncertainty and each of these points are propagated to the final time. This is highly accurate with a large number of points but adds to a high computational expense. To minimize this cost, we look for analytical and semi-analytical methods that are faster but can still reach good statistical accuracy. This seminar will focus on an introduction to SSA, collision prediction methods, and the semi-analytical toolkits developed to achieve fast and accurate collision probabilities. The target audience is students and young professionals interested in SSA research and tools.
