Technical programme

A3.1. Space Exploration Overview

This Session covers Space Exploration strategies and architectures, as well as technology roadmaps. Papers of both national and international perspectives are invited, as are papers dealing with the emerging area of commercial space exploration activities.

A3.2.P. Moon Exploration - Poster Session

A3.2A. Moon Exploration – Part 1

This session will address current and future lunar missions. The session will address orbital missions, robotic surface missions, as well as life sciences on the Moon, resource utilisation and preparatory activities for future solar system exploration.

A3.2B. Moon Exploration – Part 2

This session will address current and future lunar missions. The session will address orbital missions, robotic surface missions, as well as life sciences on the Moon, resource utilisation and preparatory activities for future solar system exploration.

A3.3.P. Mars Exploration - Poster Session

A3.3A. Mars Exploration – Part 1

The planet Mars is being explored now and in the coming years with multiple robotic missions from a variety of nations. This Session will cover current results from ongoing Mars missions and the designs for proposed Mars missions including expected experiments. Papers on any aspects of the search for evidence of extant or extinct Martian life, and forward and backward contamination are particularly welcome.

A3.4. Small Bodies Missions and Technologies

This Session will present the missions and technological aspects related to the exploration of small bodies including a search for pre-biotic signatures.

A3.4.P. Small Bodies Missions and Technologies - Poster Session

A3.5. Solar System Exploration

This Session covers robotic missions for Solar System exploration (inner and outer planets and their satellites, and space plasma physics) except the Earth, Moon, Mars, and small bodies covered in other sessions of this symposium. Papers covering both new mission concepts as well as the associated specific technologies are invited.
