SUMMARY:Earth Day 2024 - Climate Action & Lunar Exploration
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Event co-organised with The Human Space Program and Cosmic Citizen Trainings\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\nhttps://www.cosmiccitizen.training/space4earth \n\n\n\nLove it or hate it\, a new era of Lunar exploration is here. Join the conversation and influence its unfolding. \n\n\n\nAt the start of this new venture of a permanent presence on the Moon\, we aim to stimulate the alliance of Earth and Space environmentalists. Together\, let’s take a hard look at the ramifications of exploration and utilization of the Moon and create a roadmap to ensure this movement off world truly is of benefit for Earth and all Humankind. \n\n\n\nWith global interest in Lunar exploration and utilization\, we need to start to clearly define the modus operandi for activities on and around the Moon. The Moon Village Association has initiated the Global Expert Group on Sustainable Lunar Activities (GEGSLA). This group published a report that has inspired the United Nations to start this important discussion. \n\n\n\nNow is the time to define how to protect lunar environment and its link to the Earth environment. \n\n\n\nPanel 1What is “The Environment” in this New Space Age? \n\n\n\nPanel 2Can Lunar exploration help mitigate the Climate Crisis?

Long-duration missions have allowed scientists to thoroughly study the effects that prolonged stay in zero gravity\, with limited possibilities of movement and exposure to significant amounts of solar radiation\, has on the human body. Apart from the initial discomfort due to space adaptation syndrome (SAS)\, which involves nausea\, headache and lethargy for a few days\, the astronauts showed muscle atrophy\, osteopenia\, alterations in the production of red blood cells\, cardiovascular dysfunction\, reduction in effectiveness of the immune system\, sleep disorders\, etc. Moreover\, studies conducted in extreme environments on Earth have highlighted numerous possible psychological problems such as stress\, boredom and many other factors on safety\, efficiency and quality of life in space. This webinar intends to take stock of the progress made by medicine and neuroscience to overcome the serious physical and psychological imbalances associated with life in microgravity. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\nProf Elisa Raffaella Ferre has completed a Bsc\, a Msc\, and a PhD in Psychology at the Università degli Studi di Pavia (Italy). She was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London (UK)\, then she took up her first faculty position at Royal Holloway University of London (UK). In September 2021\, she joined Birkbeck University of London (UK)\, where she established the Vestibular Neuroscience Laboratory and presently holds the position of Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience. She holds the position of Co-Coordinator for the UK Space Life and Biomedical Sciences Association (UKSpaceLABS) and serves as the elected Secretary for the European Low Gravity Research Association (ELGRA).

SUMMARY:Cultural WG webinar - Moon Rocks: Study and Inspiration
DESCRIPTION:‘For although our voyage is to be outward\, it is also to be inward\, to the sources of all great acts\, which are not out there\, but in here\, in us all\, where the muses dwell.’ Joseph Campbell\, Myths to Live By\, 1972 \n\n\n\nThe six Apollo Moon Surface Missions yielded a rich collection of lunar soil and rock\, gathered by astronauts\, that continue to reveal stories of the early solar system. Within these samples are clues to understanding the planetary processes that created Earth and even the prebiotic materials that support life. These extra-terrestrial rocks have immense value for researchers and human culture alike – this webinar will examine both aspects of their significance. \n\n\n\nTransdisciplinary Artist Erika Blumenfeld conceived and established the Astromaterials 3D virtual library for NASA as a permanent public resource for exploring the nature of the solar system and its formation. In this webinar she’ll discuss this pioneering project and how it relates to her art practice. Planetary Scientist Prof Ian Crawford (Birkbeck College\, University of London) will discuss the impact the Apollo Mission rock samples have had on our understanding of the Moon and the origin and evolution of the solar system. \n\n\n\nErika Blumenfeld is an artist\, researcher\, and writer who seeks engagement across the arts\, sciences\, and humanities to cultivate artworks and dialogue that explore the material and poetic origins of our relationship with the natural world. She approaches her work like an ecological archivist\, driven by a passion to trace and collect the evidence and stories of connection across the cosmos. A Guggenheim\, Smithsonian\, and Emerson Collective Fellow\, Blumenfeld has had studios in laboratories\, observatories\, and extreme environments\, and has collaborated with scientists and research institutions\, including NASA\, Scripps Institution of Oceanography\, McDonald Observatory\, and the South African National Antarctic Program. Her work has been exhibited widely and is featured in multiple books and museum collections. Blumenfeld is the creator and Science-Principal Investigator of Astromaterials 3D at NASA\, where she leads a team to create an interactive 3D virtual library of NASA’s astromaterials collections for researchers and the public. https://erikablumenfeld.com/ \n\n\n\nIan Crawford is an astronomer turned planetary scientist\, and is currently Professor of Planetary Science and Astrobiology at Birkbeck College\, University of London. The main focus of his research is in the area of lunar exploration\, including the remote sensing of the lunar surface and the laboratory analysis of lunar samples. Ian also has research interests in the field of astrobiology\, especially Martian analogue environments on Earth\, and in the future of space exploration which he believes will become increasingly important for the future of humanity. A more detailed summary of interests\, and list of publications\, can be found at: https://www.bbk.ac.uk/our-staff/profile/8004655/ian-crawford \n\n\n\nRegister on Zoom to participate\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Cultural WG webinar - Space Habitats And Habitability: Designing For Isolated And Confined Environments On Earth And In Space
DESCRIPTION:With Sandra Häuplik-Meusburger and Sheryl Bishop \n\n\n\nIntroduction by Remo RapettiQ&A session by Arthur Woods \n\n\n\n\nHuman factors and habitability design are important topics for all working and living spaces. For space exploration\, they are vital. While human factors and certain habitability issues have been integrated into the design process of manned spacecraft\, there is a crucial need to move from mere survivability to factors that support thriving. As of today\, the risk of an incompatible vehicle or habitat design has already been identified by NASA as recognized key risk to human health and performance in space. Habitability and human factors will become even more important determinants for the design of future long-term and commercial space facilities as larger and more diverse groups occupy off-earth habitats.  The webinar will provide an overview of the evolution and advancements of designed living spaces for manned spacecrafts\, as well as analogue research and simulation facilities in extreme environments on Earth. \n\n\n\nSandra Häuplik-Meusburger\, PhD is a researcher and practicing architect in habitability design solutions for compact and extreme environments. She teaches and conducts ‘space architecture design studios’ at the department of building construction and design at the TU Wien for more than 15 years. Sandra is the academic director of the Science Academy in Lower Austria for which she developed the curriculum of a 2-year-interdisciplinary course on space research and technologies for adolescents. She is also the Academic Director of the new part-time MBA on Space Architecture that will start 2023 at the TU Wien.  She has published several scientific papers and worked on aerospace design and research projects\, as PI\, collaborator\, manager and initiator.  \n\n\n\nSheryl L. Bishop\, PhD is Professor Emeritus and Social Psychologist at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston School of Nursing. As an internationally recognized behavioral researcher in extreme environments\, for the last 30 years Dr. Bishop has investigated human performance and group dynamics in teams in extreme\, unusual environments\, involving deep cavers\, mountain climbers\, desert survival groups\, polar expeditioners\, Antarctic winter-over groups and various simulations of isolated\, confined environments for space at remote habitats. She has over 60 publications (including NASA’s Historical Series on Psychology in Space) and over 50 scholarly presentations in both the medical and psychological fields.  \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegister on Zoom to participate: \n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_f1Dt5UqXTaitoICeiOL1DA \n\n\n\nThe webinar will be streamed on the MVA Youtube channel

SUMMARY:Cultural WG webinar - Space Design For A New Extra-Terrestrial Human Being
DESCRIPTION:with Annalisa Dominoni & Benedetto Quaquaro \n\n\n\nIntroduction by  Remo Rapetti\, Q&A session by Arthur Woods \n\n\n\nThursday\, September 15\, 2022\, at 17.30 CEST \n\n\n\nWhy “Space Design”? We believe space today\, and in the future\, will have an ever more decisive influence on the daily life\, behaviours and performance of people\, and\, consequently\, on the transformative capacity of private companies to generate innovation and new business models\, thanks to the strategic contribution of design. “Go to space” is the new aspirational dream. \n\n\n\nDesign is visionary\, design is innovation\, and act as a “bridge” between science and beauty\, speaking the different languages of engineering\, technology\, but also culture\, art and economy\, keeping at the centre the needs of people\, with the aim of increasing the well-being of living space and extreme environments looking at the “human sensible factors”. \n\n\n\nIn this webinar is presented the new emerging discipline of “Space Design” in between space and earth that anticipates the scenario of the future human space missions: if astronauts feel better in a comfortable environment\, considering physiological\, psychological\, and emotional factors\, their performance\, and the success of the whole mission increase. \n\n\n\nThe speakers\, thanks to their more than twenty-year experience in researching and designing for space at the Design Department of Politecnico di Milano\, as extra-terrestrial habitation modules and tools that have been used by astronauts on-board the International Space Station (ISS)\, have helped assert design’s role and purpose in the space field. They created and are leading currently at the School of Design the 1st and unique course in space design called “Space4InspirAction” recognized and supported by the European Space Agency (ESA) in which research and teaching are strongly connected with industry to create a dialogue between space technology and productive knowledge and generate innovation. \n\n\n\nBoth PhDs\, architects\, designers and professors\, they founded the studio (a+b) in Milan with the aim of doing design by combining research and technological innovation with poetry. They regularly collaborate with leading international space agencies and industries and major design companies\, at the same time they conduct research activities at the Design Department of the Politecnico di Milano\, together with teaching and publishing essays on the culture of the project that have contributed to affirming the strategic role of design in Space. \n\n\n\nRegister to participate: \n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4yP4aL0UR1SIF9TeaIBMRw

SUMMARY:Lunar Commerce & Economics WG Webinar - Commercial potential of the Moon – why and how?
DESCRIPTION:Humankind is going back to the Moon – both via robotic and crewed missions. Indeed\, it is hoped that now\, over a half century since the Apollo landings\, this time the intention will be to stay. Various architectures are being proposed which address the technical challenges of providing an environment for the future occupants of the facilities on and below the lunar surface. Also\, a great deal of work is taking place to establish the legal and regulatory basis for such a future habitation and working base. But how will the financial resources become available to make this future possible\, and how can a truly commercial set of enterprises on the lunar surface function to provide revenues\, creating the next\, permanent\, phase of lunar development? \n\n\n\nThis webinar will provide an insight into how the Moon Village Association (MVA) is tackling these questions\, by the creation of a Working Group on Lunar Commerce and Economics (LCE)\, which is working to produce a “Lunar Commerce Portfolio”. This will be created from the best available international data\, and will become a reference source for the planning community – in space agencies\, in the series of commercial entities contributing to these activities\, and to the venture capital and insurance sectors underwriting the entrepreneurial companies taking these first commercial steps. The webinar will provide you with an early insight into this important new work\, and the form in which it is being developed. The future on the Moon will have to be largely a result of commercial developments. \n\n\n\nCheck out the webinar to get an advanced insight into the nature of the businesses that will be involved\, both space and non-space alike\, and how we will be driving toward understanding the opportunities our Moon may present us. \n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\nTBA \n\n\n\nAgenda: \n\n\n\nIntroduction to the MVA – Giuseppe Reibaldi (5 min)What is the Lunar Commerce and Economics working group? – Derek Webber (10 min )Why the Lunar Commerce Portfolio is needed?

SUMMARY:MVA PAYLOAD - The Overview Effect
DESCRIPTION:Join us to hear perspectives of the MVA payload project goals from leaders in their fields! \nWhen humans first set off for the Moon with the Apollo program\, and in particular the Apollo 8 mission\, they were profoundly moved by what they saw. \nThey’d been further than any human in the history of our planet and were approaching a new world – but it was what they left behind that really changed their perspective. From a distance\, they saw our home – spaceship Earth – “hanging in the void”. \nThis was the first time someone had described the term the “Overview Effect” – a cognitive state of awareness only acquired when being so far away from the Earth itself\, that one becomes overwhelmed by its beauty\, fragility and loneliness in the darkness of space. When you’re far enough from home\, you really get a sense of appreciating it. \nBut not everyone has the same experience of the Overview Effect. For some\, it brought fear and overwhelming feelings of alienation and isolation.  \nWe’re very excited to be collaborating with the Moon Village Association\, to bring together a range of speakers to talk about the wonders of the Overview Effect.  \nSpeakers \n\nLiza Koumi- Moon Village Payloads Project Manager\, Space projects engineer\, and International Space University Alumni\nPhilippe Van Nedervelde- Award winning VR creator\, Advocate for Spaceflight and Futurist.\nAlice Gorman a.k.a Dr Space Junk -Space Archaeologist\, Heritage consultant and Board member of the Space Industry Assocation of Australia and Space4women.\nCarley Scott- CEO of Equitorial Launch Australia- Australia’s Spaceport at 12 Degrees\, Board of Space Industry Association of Australia and CSIRO’s Advanced Manufacturing Academy. .\nVienna Tran\, Moderator of the event\,Space medicine researcher and Writer with Space Australia.\nDr Sarah Jane Pell – Analogue astronaut \, Award winning Artist\, Researcher.\n\nThursday the 29th of October AEST 6:00pm (UTC+11) \, 8:00am CET \nTo register: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/mva-payload-the-overview-effect-tickets-124812009079

SUMMARY:Governance of Global Moon Exploration and Settlement Episode 4: Best Practices for Sustainable Lunar Activities - The way forward
DESCRIPTION:Both the United States and China have revealed their plans to return people to the Moon in the near future. Many other countries\, as well as private companies\, will partner with the U.S. and China in these endeavors. As these missions move forward\, the risk for interference or conflict arising from competition for sunlight\, ice\, and land will grow. In order to reduce this risk\, a set of basic ground rules must be implemented. NASA has begun the process of establishing these rules among its partners in the Artemis Project through a series of bilateral agreements. But the Artemis Accords are aimed to Artemis partners only. The Moon Village Association’s Best Practices for Sustainable Lunar Activity fill this gap by providing a process for developing multilateral ground rules for all countries that are heading to the Moon. \nThe Principles were issued last March by MVA and following 6 months of public consultation\, including several webinars\, will be presented in its present form. \nThis webinar will be the last of the Governance episodes and will present the proposed way forward to implement the Best Practices\, in the short and medium to long term as well as provide a sneak preview of the 1st Online Global Moon Village and Workshop\, 9-10 November where some announcement are expected. \nThe panelists will discuss: \n\nBest Practices for sustainable lunar activities\, updated version\nImplementation strategy:\n\nIn the short term\, as this will reduce the risk of involuntary accidents and harmful interference\, increase confidence building\, promote peaceful cooperation\, and ensure that lunar activities are conducted in a sustainable manner.\nIn the medium to long term\, the importance of COPUOS will be discussed\, to increase the consensus to the Best Practices\, with specific reference to the developing countries.\n\n\nPreliminary Programme of the 1st Online Global Moon Village Workshop & Symposium\n\nRegister on Eventbrite to participate in the webinar: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/governance-of-global-moon-exploration-and-settlement-episode-4-tickets-124546839951 \n or watch live on the MVA Facebook Page. \nThe admission in the webinar will be on a first come first served basis. \n\n\nSpeakers: \n\nNiklas Hedman – Chief Committee\, Policy and Legal Affairs Section\, Office for Outer Space Affairs United Nations Office\, Vienna\nGeorge A.
