SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:The European Space Agency is recruiting its next generation of astronauts in 2021. Till date only 11% of astronauts worldwide have been women. Yet\, to build a sustainable human presence in space\, there is a need for more diversity in crews. ESA is highly encouraging women to apply to the upcoming selection\, and at ‘Our Giant Leap’ we aim to encourage and support them in this process. \nThrough this series of webinars organised by the SGAC Our Giant Leap team\, we will explain the current status of diversity in astronaut crews\, and why an increase is needed. We will also support your application by sharing tips and insights from our experts. Finally\, we want you to meet with applicants to the selection to learn more about their path in the process\, and hopefully convince you that you might also have what it takes to be an astronaut ! \nThe team is therefore proud to present the first episode of its webinar series. With the help of our experts\, we will address the general lack of women in STEM and how that impacts the space sector. We will also discuss the current challenges for women in the area of human spaceflight\, and the overall benefits for everyone of having more diverse crews. Ultimately\, our goal is for you to know what to say next time someone asks you: Why do we need more women astronauts?  \n  \nYou can already participate in the event before it begins!

For our series on health in space\, it is time to look at the effects of this challenging endeavour on the mental health of astronauts and other professionals working in such harsh or isolated places. \nOver the next decades\, space missions returning to the Moon or even going further to Mars will take longer than a typical stay at the International Space Station. That will probably affect aspects of the human psyche of the astronauts on the go. But what mental effects will be of importance\, when we will travel further away from Earth? \nWe have invited Dr. Iya Whitely and dr. Nathan Smith to join us on a tour through this exciting specialism in space health. What should we learn from the human mind before putting it under the stress of long duration space missions? What do we know from extreme environments on Earth and their habitants mental health? How do we work towards successful and healthy human space flight missions in the future? \n\nDr Iya Whiteley is a Space Psychologist (ESA\, UKSA and IBMP) and the Director of the Centre for Space Medicine\, Mullard Space Science Laboratory\, University College London. She has 25 years of experience in space psychology\, human performance and cognitive system engineering. Besides her background in clinical psychology\, she has expertise in: crew selection & astronaut training\, interface & cockpit design; human-robot interaction and humanoid robot design. Also\, she is a pilot\, skydiver\, PADI Rescue Scuba Diver\, and acupuncturist. Her book “TOOLKIT FOR A SPACE PSYCHOLOGIST”\, was written to support astronauts in exploration missions to the Moon and Mars. Iya was expert and presenter for 6 episodes on the BBC Science show Astronauts: Do You Have What It Takes?\n\n\nDr. Nathan Smith obtained a PhD from the University of Birmingham in Sport and Exercise Psychology\, after which he further specialized in extreme medicine. He developed training and education on psychology in extreme environments. Furthermore\, Nathan has been a research fellow at the University of Manchester studying how humans survive and thrive in extreme environments\, working together closely with ESA and NASA.\n\nOur stellar panel will discuss astronaut psychological health for current and next generation space missions and at the end of the session we will open up the floor for questions. This session will be moderated by your host Jules Lancee\, health innovator on Earth.

SUMMARY:Second Italian Space Startup Competition
DESCRIPTION:  \nItalian Space Startup Competition 2020 \nNovember 7-8\, 2020  \nOnline! \nSecond Italian Space Startup Competition\nThe Italian Space Startup Competition (ISSC) is a startup competition whose area of interest is space in all its facets. During the two days of the event\, participants will have the opportunity to interact with experts from the space field and to work in teams\, so to discuss their ideas and shape them into business cases. The participants will benefit from the support of mentors\, whose backgrounds and expertise are diverse and covering different areas of the space sector.  \nAt the conclusion of the ISSC\, these ideas are presented in front of a jury during a pitch competition. The business ideas may include new technologies\, spin-in or spin-off\, or space data applications.  \nCompetition Goals\nThe aims of ISSC are to promote the interest of the young generation in space business and to bring forth the next generation of entrepreneurs\, encouraging knowledge sharing\, fostering innovation and providing participants with the necessary backdrop to network\, learn and shape the future.  \nThe event is dedicated to\, but not limited to\, new-graduates\, students and young professionals who are interested in working in the space sector and are willing to take a challenge in a business context. The interdisciplinary of the event allows people from any background\, be it engineering\, law\, economics or else\, to participate.

SUMMARY:New-Space and Opportunities for Non-Spacefaring Nations
DESCRIPTION:You do not need a space agency to go to space! You do not need millions of dollars to go to space! And you can start from scratch! This is all possible today thanks to “New Space”. The space sector has seen dramatic changes in the past decade. \nFrom reduced launching costs\, nano-satellites\, and commercial space to innovative satellite technologies and the use of components off-the-shelf. This has opened new opportunities for smaller entities and developing nations to enter the Space era. \nIn this talk\, we will explore some urging questions such as: \nWhat is “New Space”? \nHow much does it cost to build a satellite? \nHow much does it cost to launch a satellite? \nHow to build a space project at your university? \nWhile trying to answer these questions\, we will tap into some of the key technologies that are shaping the present and future of Space. Stay tuned! \n  \n  \nREGISTER HERE
