SUMMARY:NASA Citizen Science Month Event
DESCRIPTION:Spotlight Chats are a series of moderated discussions with leaders across government highlighting success stories and lessons learned. \nIn celebration of Citizen Science Month\, join us for a Spotlight Chat with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). You’ll hear from NASA Astrophysicist and Citizen Science Officer Marc Kuchner as he discusses how NASA focuses on the science of citizen/participatory science and why they use the terms “citizen or participatory science.” \nNASA is leading 32 active projects across their different divisions: astrophysics\, biological\, and physical sciences. You’ll get to hear updates on some of these exciting citizen science projects. NASA has more than 400 volunteer citizen scientists\, some who have been co-authors on published scientific papers. \nThere will also be a facilitated Q&A session. \nApr 25\, 2023 01:00 PM in Eastern Time (US and Canada)

SUMMARY:EAI Seminar: Life in the Atmosphere and its Implications for Astrobiology
DESCRIPTION:The Earth’s atmosphere and airborne microorganisms are interlinked in many ways. The atmosphere serves as a major conductor for the dispersal of microbial cells\, which has been key for the early colonisation of continents and for the contemporary distribution of microorganisms. Microorganisms can survive stressful conditions in the atmosphere and may be able to maintain active metabolisms while airborne\, which expands our understanding of the limits of life. Finally\, microorganisms have key impacts on atmospheric processes\, in particular the formation\, optical properties and lifetime of clouds\, by which they may impact the global climate. In this lecture\, I will give insights into the ability of microorganisms to enter the atmosphere\, survive and maintain their metabolic activity as well as impact atmospheric processes. These insights are based on field studies that we have performed in polar regions and on laboratory simulation studies\, where we investigate microbial responses to simulated atmospheric conditions. These findings have implications for defining the limits of life as well as for the search for life on exoplanets.

SUMMARY:Beyond Earth Webinar: Artificial Gravity: From Cinema to Reality
DESCRIPTION:The Beyond Earth Institute (Beyond Earth) will be hosting a virtual policy event titled “Artificial Gravity: From Cinema to Reality” on January 18\, 2023 from 1:00-2:30 pm Eastern Time via Zoom. The event is free with donations suggested. Tickets can be obtained at the following link: https://app.tickettailor.com/events/beyondearthinstitute/808542 \nAs the global space community makes a return to the moon and sets its sight on Mars and beyond\, an exciting new era of deep space\, long-duration crewed space exploration and development is upon us. However\, as promising as our journeys beyond Earth orbit will be\, they will also carry significant health challenges for future explorers and pioneers – not least of which is body-degrading long-term exposure to microgravity. As a recent NASA Ames study concluded\, one promising countermeasure for upcoming deep space missions is artificial gravity aboard journey-bound craft. \nThe concept is far from novel. From Discovery’s rotating centrifuge in “2001: A Space Odyssey” to Mark Whitney’s Mars-bound Hermes in “The Martian\,” artificial gravity in space has long been in the public imagination. Scientists have been studying the concept since the start of the Space Age; and\, though it didn’t come to fruition\, there were even formal efforts to include an artificial gravity module – the “Nautilus X” – on the International Space Station. Today\, innovative companies such as Gravitics are actively developing stations designed around the artificial gravity environment. \nThe future expansion of humanity into the depths of the solar system will very likely rely on artificial gravity\, and the time is ripe to start demonstrating the capability. This Beyond Earth panel brings together the leading experts and executives studying and deploying artificial gravity in space for a compelling conversation on the opportunities and challenges involved in the technology\, as well as the vision for its future. \nSpeakers: \nModerator: Mike DeRosa\, Marketing and Media\, Co-Founder\, Gravitics\nTarek Waked\, Founding Partner\, Type One Ventures\nPeter Garretson\, Head\, Space Horizons Research Task Force\nDr. Janani Iyer\, Research Scientist\, USRA/NASA Ames\, Author\, Cells Report paper\nDr. Siddhita Mhatre\, Senior Scientist\, KBR/NASA Ames\, Author\, Cells Report paper\nCells Report paper: https://www.cell.com/cell-reports/pdf/S2211-1247(22)01099-3.pdf \nAbout the Beyond Earth Institute \nThe Beyond Earth Institute is a 501(c)(3) U.S. non-profit organization. It is at the heart of all related initiatives that impact the success of the space movement with respect to human expansion beyond Earth. Beyond Earth’s focus is on technology readiness\, worldwide public support\, and related public policy enactment\, including recommendations for policy initiatives. Beyond Earth conducts primary and secondary research\, then consolidates and publicizes reports to be delivered and presented widely throughout the space policy community both in the U.S. and internationally.

SUMMARY:AIAA Aerospace Perspectives Series: On-Orbit Mission Enhancement and Logistics
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is hosted by AIAA\, is presented by Lockheed Martin\, and is open to all members of the AIAA and ASCEND communities. \nAIAA Aerospace Perspectives Series: On-Orbit Mission Enhancement and LogisticsTo ensure mission success\, as well as the longevity\, flexibility\, and value of on-orbit space assets\, the space industry is developing a variety of on-orbit satellite servicing capabilities for commercial use and for onboarding to government programs. This event will feature some of the industry and military leaders who are driving on-orbit satellite servicing capabilities to tell the story of how we are accelerating these advancements to benefit the space industry. \nA standardized docking port enables successful on-orbit servicing missions by accommodating a wide-range of Satellite Augmentation Vehicles (SAVs). The port enables SAVs to attach to a host vehicle to provide an expansive selection of mission augmentation including mission enhancements\, system upgrades\, failure recovery\, and alternative communication paths. Lockheed Martin Space has released the first open-source Mission Augmentation Port (MAP) standard and is rapidly expanding its family of high-technology readiness level (TRL) docking ports. Investments in mission augmentation and on-orbit satellite servicing will bring value to the bustling space economy\, enhance cooperative architectures\, and extend mission longevity.
