27th ESA Symposium on European Rocket and Balloon Programmes and Related Research

This Symposium will be the 27th in a series of conferences initiated in 1973 by the Member States of EASP to provide a platform for scientists and engineers using sounding rockets and balloons in their research, and to advance progress in related scientific disciplines. The scope of the Symposium also includes related ground-based, aircraft and satellite research, new developments in technology, improvements of range facilities, and space education. The Symposium participants are given the opportunity to report on their latest achievements and future plans in the various scientific and technical fields. It is a widely recognised occasion for efficient communication between scientists, engineers from industry, project managers and range personnel, and thus a good starting point for stronger collaboration. The Symposium highlights new trends and latest developments in the use of sounding rockets and balloons for scientific research, facilitating the establishment of strategic roadmaps towards the future of the subject activities.
