ESA/ELGRA Gravity-Related Research Summer School 2026

The Summer School is designed in a blended format. In the first week, students will take part in a series of lectures and workshops held at the ESA Academy’s Training and Learning Facility located at ESEC-Galaxia in Transinne, Belgium. Participants will collaborate with fellow university students in dynamic team settings. Together, they will brainstorm and develop innovative ideas for gravity-related experiments. In the second week, students will attend online sessions and work in teams to devise and present their gravity-related experiment proposal on the last day of the Summer School. During the Summer School, participants will attend stimulating lectures led by renowned international experts from ESA and ELGRA. Students will benefit from their experience and expertise in gravity-related research across different disciplines and gain insights into the practical aspects of their day-to-day work.
