Space Science in Context 2024 - (Free) Registration Open

Hi folks -

[With the usual apologies for cross-posting]

Thanks - Ellie

Space Science in Context (17–18 October, 2024) returns for its third year! SSiC is a FREE, cross-disciplinary conference on outer space and society - intended to bring together those across natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and community work to tackle the big questions facing the field. This year SSiC’s theme is Justice in Action.

This year’s programme: Our live sessions are 17–18th October 2024; but if you’re busy at that time, don’t worry! All our speakers’ talks will be uploaded to the website the week before the live sessions, so you can engage with their thoughts on your own time beyond the designated days of the event.

We have a dazzling array of panellists giving pre-recorded talks and having live discussions over the two days. In addition to our usual flipped-classroom model, we have social sessions to meet and chat with others, film screenings, and Pacific/East Asia timezone-friendly sessions.

Our three panels this year are:

  • Space Futures which investigates who imagines the future of outer space, how, and in what ways?
  • Where Are They Now?, which revisits topics and speakers from the SSiC 2020 and SSiC 2023 conferences; and
  • Communities of Practice where we look at organisations reshaping the practices of space science.

The conference also includes a film screening, and two online social spaces for networking and sharing ideas. Registering for the (free) conference gets you access to all of these events!

Accessibility statement: All of the pre-recorded speaker videos will have transcripts and closed captioning. The live event will take place over Zoom. We are seeking English-language CART for the live event; you can see which sessions have CART on the Programme Schedule . The live event will not be recorded.

Help Space Science in Content 2024 reach new audiences by passing this invitation along to friends, colleagues, communities and students you think might be interested in joining the conference.
