Location: San Diego, California, USA
Info: ICSSC allows the satellite engineering and business development communities to interact and discuss the key issues, policies, challenges and opportunities facing the satellite industry, under one unique venue for the global satellite industry. The abstract deadline is 29 November 2007. ICSSC is held jointly with the Hannover Fairs USA’s 7th Annual International Satellite & Communications exchange Conference and Expo (ISCe)

Location: Guelph, Ontario, Canada
Info: The workshop goal is to develop a strategic technology roadmap for a major Canadian infrastructure contribution to the international space exploration effort building on Canada's international leadership role in the field of biological life support and greenhouse technology. Attendees will self-select into technology focussed break-out groups to develop R&D roadmaps in their particular areas of expertise. (Add to Google Calendar)

Location: Pasadena, California, USA
Info: The solar corona accelerates into space to form the supersonic solar wind and push the interstellar medium out of the solar system to distances beyond 100 AU creating the Heliosphere. It also carries the Sun's dipole magnetic field into the Heliosphere filling it with magnetized plasma. The Heliospheric Magnetic Field (HMF) prevents the interstellar plasma and magnetic field from penetrating into the Heliosphere leading to a sharp boundary separating solar and interstellar plasmas. The magnetic dipole is tilted to the Sun's rotation axis and, as the Sun rotates, fast and slow winds interact introducing internal structure and dynamics. Helisopheric dynamics are further enhanced by the penetration of some interstellar constituents into the Heliosphere, namely, neutral gas, electrically- charged interstellar dust and Galactic Cosmic Rays. The structure and dynamics of the heliosphere are profoundly affected by the changes in the solar magnetic field that cause the solar cycle. These physical phenomena will be reviewed based on 17 years of 3D observations by Ulysses, the first spacecraft in a polar orbit that passes above the Sun's polar caps.

Location: Atlanta, Georgia, United States
Info: Explore technological challenges and scientific opportunities associated with entry, descent, landing and flight in planetary atmospheres with fellow scientists, technologists, engineers, mission designers, and policy-makers interested in the exploration of solar system bodies with substantial atmospheres. Building on previous successes, the workshop will promote international cooperation in probe missions to solar system moons and planets with atmospheres and provide students—the next generation of planetary scientists—and spacecraft engineers, an opportunity to participate.

Info: The Space Studies Board (SSB) seminar series takes advantage of the 50th anniversary of the International Geophysical Year (IGY) to engage with the public and the scientific community about the advances that have been achieved over the past 50 years in space science, and the discoveries that await us in the next 50 years. In this context, “space science” incorporates space-based astrophysics, heliophysics, earth science, solar system exploration, and microgravity life and physical sciences. (Add to Google Calendar)
