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. Session topics include: Mission concept studies Historical perspectives Ongoing and proposed technology development activities System challenges and innovative ideas for accommodating extreme environments Micro-probes and Mini-probes Sample return missions challenges Planetary entry science payloads The engineering and science of current planetary entry missions The space community is focused on expanding our knowledge of planetary atmospheres and their moons, comets, and asteroids with numerous projects targeting major destinations in our solar system, including NASA’s studies defining its next major missions and ESA’s focus on its Cosmic Vision and Aurora programs. The Sixth International Planetary Probe Workshop welcomes your participation. Come early to the five-day workshop, for a two-day short course, Extreme Environment Technologies, on June 21-22, 2008. |
