The Astronomy with Small Satellites meeting is being organised in recognition of the fact that small satellites have now evolved to a level of complexity that allows them to perform a wide variety of useful scientific missions.

The meeting will provide an opportunity to discuss the state of the art in small satellites and also to establish contacts with other experts working in the small satellite field. Talks will cover every aspect of the field including the design of platforms and subsystems, and the motivating science that small astronomy satellites can address. There will also be space for posters to be displayed during the tea/coffee and lunch breaks.

The meeting will be held at the RAS headquarters in Burlington House, Piccadilly, London as part of the 2008/09 season of monthly RAS meetings.

Admission fees:

Admission to Specialist Discussion Meetings is free to RAS members, £15 to non-members (£5 to students) for all or part of the day cash or cheque only, collected at the door.  Admission to the subsequent Open (Monthly A&G) Meeting of the Royal Astronomical Society is open to all, at no charge.
