Science and applications of the space environment: new results and interdisciplinary connections

The Royal Society, 16-18 October 2001
Second announcement: Abstract deadline reminder and registration required

The space environment is a multidisciplinary topic in science, applications and engineering, covering exciting areas of high current interest including observing the Earth and planets, the sun-Earth connection, Earths environment in space, hazard warning and forecasting and the underlying space and spacecraft technologies. There are natural connections between these areas in terms of the scientific techniques and the space technology required. Some of the connections are only now being discovered and exploited, and this discussion meeting will provide a timely focus for pursuing these further and identifying others.

The main goals of the meeting are to

• Identify links between different areas of science and technology
• Identify gaps in science, interpretation and applications
• Identify underlying technology
