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.

SUMMARY:SGAC AAS Next Generation Event 2018
DESCRIPTION:Pioneering New FrontiersThe Space Generation Advisory Council and American Astronautical Society (AAS) presents a one-day next-generation event held in conjunction with the ISS R&D Conference 2018 to bring together perspectives from both leaders and young professionals in the space sector in addressing new ventures\, international collaboration\, public outreach programs and scientific missions in space. \nThe NextGen event will provide a forum for young professionals to exchange ideas\, present their views and share their experiences under the overarching theme Pioneering New Frontiers. 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.

These include (i) mutually beneficial pooling of resources for research and development (R&D) of space technology or cutting-edge R&D in the space environment\, which can be costly; and (ii) consistency in policy and funding – when countries participate in multilateral space projects such as the International Space Station (ISS)\, they are typically less likely to change national space policy or withdraw funding for such projects due to commitments to international partners\, as it may undermine the country’s reputation or signal weakness in project management. \nHowever\, it is well noted by observers that the Asian space scene is fragmented. This can be contrasted particularly with the European scene\, which has seen the creation of a formal alliance through the European Space Agency. On the international front\, a groundbreaking symbol for cooperation can be found in the ISS project which has seen close collaboration between its participating states (including USA\, Russia and Japan). The Asia Pacific Regional Space Agencies Forum (APRSAF) has led a laudable effort in coordinating most of the countries in the region\, and its projects such as Sentinel Asia could be seen as stepping stones to more substantial regional cooperation. However\, not all Asian countries\, for example most of those in the Asia Pacific Space Cooperation Organisation (APSCO) coalition\, have considered participation in the APRSAF framework to be suited to their national interests.1 Thus\, there exists a divergence of interests in the Asian context. This is an impediment to deeper level cooperation. \nIn certain quarters\, some harbour hope that ASEAN could\, as it has done in the ASEAN+3 and similar projects\, provide a unifying platform around which Asia can truly cooperate and coordinate in good faith. However\, for this idea to have any chance of fruition\, ASEAN must get its act together in the space context first. It is with this latter observation in mind that this theme is proposed. \nDiscussion Objectives\nASEAN has taken basic steps in the coordination of space development – the ASEAN Sub-Committee on Space Technology and Application (SCOSA) has been in existence since the early 2000s. However\, there could be a role for the young professional and student delegates of SG [ASEAN] 2018 to consider the bigger and longer-term picture for how the next steps should look like. As such\, this Working Group will consider how to shape a Roadmap towards ASEAN Space Cooperation\, and potential projects and programmes to include. \nReading List\nSpace Sustainability for Emerging Space States\n\nDescription\nOne of the key concepts that has been universally endorsed by the space community in recent years is the idea of sustainability. There are many angles to space sustainability but the issues that are usually identified include: (i) sustainable development of national space industries with a diverse (in terms of gender and race) pipeline of science\, technology\, engineering and mathematics (STEM) graduates and researchers; (ii) sustainable development of space capabilities across developed and developing  countries and (iii) a sustainable space environment that is free of space debris. \nAt the moment\, the focal platform of discussions at the United Nations level is  UNISPACE+50 which promises to chart the future of the contribution of the United  Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UNCOPUOS) to global space  governance. There is considerable attention by UNISPACE+50 on sustainability issues  relating to developing countries\, for example promoting STEM education and women  careers in space in developing countries and ensuring that developing countries benefit  from space exploration and innovation. Active engagement of developing countries was  expressly a key goal of the UNISPACE+50 process. \nDiscussion Objectives\nMost ASEAN countries are developing countries and all ASEAN countries are considered emerging space states. Therefore\, there is a role for the young professional and student delegates of SG [ASEAN] 2018 to discuss in greater detail our views on the sustainability issues concerning developing countries and emerging space states. As such\, this Working Group will consider the perspective of emerging space states on space sustainability issues and what actions we can take going forward. \nReading List\nThe Future ASEAN Space Economy\n\nDescription\nThe economy is influenced by long-term as well as short-term factors. While short-term factors (e.g. natural disasters\, terrorist incidents and freak election results) cannot be easily predicted\, long-term factors such as national policies\, demographic shifts\, education trends and long-term plans of major commercial actors are observable in advance. \nThe space industry has long been acknowledged as being high-technology\, capital-intensive (especially the upstream sector) and nationally-vital\, having long investment horizons (whether national investment or private investment). As such\, it is a particularly challenging economy to manage or foster. It cannot be said that ASEAN states have neglected this area\, with states such as Thailand\, Indonesia\, Malaysia\, Singapore\, Vietnam\, Philippines and Myanmar allocating considerable government resources towards fostering a domestic space industry and economy since the 1970s. Yet\, promising results are only slowly becoming regular and apparent. \nDiscussion Objectives\nOne way to forecast how the ASEAN economy (and its national space industries) will take shape in the near future is by examining long-term economic driving forces that we see today. Examples of driving forces to study include space policies\, space or STEM education and capacity building\, and plans of key space organisations in the region. Through this exercise\, we might derive possible trajectories of the space industrial competencies that ASEAN member states could develop. \nThe young professional and student delegates of SG [ASEAN] 2018 will be the future leaders who will face this reality\, and are well-positioned to both imagine and create the future space economy that they aspire to – one with high-quality employment opportunities\, international success and influence\, and a stable regional environment. \nReading List\nVenue					\n					Engineering Design and Innovation Centre (E2A)\nSG[ASEAN] will be hosted at the Engineering Design and Innovation Centre (E2A) in the National University of Singapore.
