SUMMARY:SG Latin American Webinar Series #4: Development and implementation of a space economy in the region
DESCRIPTION: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the early stages of space exploration most activities were undertaken or guided by states\, however there is a current trend of private companies developing several aspects of space exploration. From launch services to satellite parts manufacturing\, including Earth observation services and space tourism\, private initiatives have flourished towards a new age of space exploration\, a philosophy known as NewSpace. This trend has been allowed by the development of the markets\, cheaper technology\, new regulations\, appearance of new applications for a broader audience\, and new opportunities for commercial exploitation of space resources. The South American region could benefit from the development of a space economy ecosystem\, by providing a benchmark for the appearance of private companies tackling space applications. \n**This session will be delivered in Spanish \n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:SG Latin American Webinar Series #3: Opportunities for Analog Research\, Astrobiology and Planetary Science in Latin America
DESCRIPTION:There has been a great growth in interest around the world in crewed missions towards the Moon\, Mars\, and several outer space destinations. As part of this endeavor\, there has been a development in analogue research missions. Analogue missions are field tests in locations that have physical similarities to the extreme space environments that we can find in other locations in outer space. Analogue missions experiments involve testing of new technologies\, robotic equipment\, vehicles\, habitats\, communications\, power generation\, mobility\, infrastructure as well as the observation of human factors such as the analysis of behavioral effects\, isolation and confinement\, team dynamics\, menu fatigue\, among others. Previous studies have shown that South America has several places that could be used to develop analogue missions. This working group will identify how SA countries can be part of this research trend from different perspectives: locations/facilities in SA for the development of analogue mission\, formation of human resources for future missions\, and interaction between the region and external agencies and institutions. \n

SUMMARY:SG Latin American Webinar Series #2: Satellite Technology for the Benefit of People: A Space Perspective for Solving Regional Problems
DESCRIPTION:The electronics miniaturization as well as cost reduction have been the trigger of a new generation of small satellites\, amongst them the ones known as CubeSat. Although small\, this kind of satellite can carry a variety sensors such as multispectral and hyperspectral cameras or even spectrometers that can acquire important and useful information while they are in orbit around the Earth. Its general low cost implementation makes it interesting for researchers\, governments\, and companies who want to provide services such as internet\, land monitoring among others\, to use them as a resource. Several institutions in South America have been developing small satellite technology as independent initiatives\, gathering experience relevant for the implementation of small satellite based missions which could benefit the region. This panel will focus on identify possible partnerships\, the steps to generate collaborative programs in this area\, and the current state of affairs regarding the technology capacities\, towards making a first approach for emergent countries towards the space sector\, and serve as a platform for solving some problems of the region that could be aided by the use of space located assets\, such as natural disaster control. \nThis webinar will be held in Spanish. \n

SUMMARY:[Partnered] Returning to the Moon: Implications
DESCRIPTION:Do we know what the implications of returning to the Moon would have on human physiology and psychology? Can medical technology aid us? \nTime: 11:30-14:00 BST/12:30-15:00 CEDT/6.30am-9am EDT \nAbout this Event \nThe last time humankind flew beyond lower Earth orbit and to the Moon was during the Apollo 17 mission\, in 1972. Since then\, as a species we have not returned to the Moon\, despite multi-national interests in setting up lunar bases. NASA’s Artemis programme aims to put “the first woman and the next man” on the Moon by as early as 2024\, with the aim of establishing a presence on the Moon\, and using it as a way of eventually putting humans on Mars. Yet\, the implications of an extended stay on the Moon on human health are yet to be explored in great detail. How would flying and setting up for months or even years at a time effect human physiology and psychology? What risks does this next step in human space exploration pose to our bodies\, and are the risks worth it? \nThis UK Space LABS/SGAC webinar event aims to explore these questions and also provide the opportunity for your questions to be answered by a variety of experts in the field\, who each have experience in space related research\, and will offer fascinating talks on a range of topics\, from remote monitoring of astronaut health\, to the psychology of coping in extreme environments. \n\nDr Jo Bower – Jo is a Lecturer in psychology at University of East Anglia. She completed her postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Houston\, on a NASA funded project investigating risk and resilience of people in isolated and extreme environments. She will be presenting data on emotional and physical symptoms of being in isolated and extreme environments\, including a recent Antarctic winterover study\, which was used as an analogue for long duration space exploration.\nDr Floris Wuyst – Floris is Professor at the University of Antwerp and recently worked with Russian cosmonauts to publish a paper on the effects of spaceflight on functional brain connectivity.\nLauren Church – Lauren is an MSc student studying Space Physiology and Health at King’s College London. As part of the research collective “Paraboladies”\, Lauren has completed research on the pre-flight medical checks required for commercial suborbital spaceflight\, with an accepted abstract for AsMA 2020 on this subject.
