Next Thursday, 26 May 2022, the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (Institut d'Estudis Espacials de Catalunya — IEEC) organises a new edition of the series "Tandems of scientific couples: public and private entities". Entitled "Large-scale missions in astronomical and aerospace research", the conversation will take place from 6:30 pm to 7:15 pm and can be followed live on IEEC’s YouTube channel.
In the colloquium, Dr Miquel Nofrarias, researcher at the Institute of Space Sciences (ICE-CSIC) and member of IEEC, and Joan Manel Casalta, director of the Science Department of SENER-Aerospace, will talk with Mireia Colina, manager of the space sector in Leaf Space and leader of the local group of Women in Aerospace (WiA Europe – Barcelona).
During the debate, the speakers will talk about the current status of large astronomical and aerospace missions from the point of view of a public and a private entity, as well as the future prospects of large-scale missions versus the boom in missions at a much lower level (such as nanosatellites), among other topics.
