Issue 3 – Take Off

Read in the fully formatted PDF of the Europlanet Magazine.

The spring of 2022 has a mixed outlook. On the positive side, the situation with Covid-19 is easing in many places in Europe and, with the start of the conference season, we finally have opportunities to meet again face-to-face. On the negative side, the war in Ukraine is ongoing and bringing us daily stories of tragedy, horrors and disruption.

In this third issue of the Europlanet Magazine, we look back to mourn the loss of two much loved and valued colleagues, and look ahead to exciting opportunities for our community as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) begins operations.

At midway through the Europlanet 2024 Research Infrastructure (RI) project, we report on recent workshops, expert exchanges and emerging impacts from our mentorship programme. We also look at some of the creative ways that artificial intelligence and machine learning are being adopted by the planetary science community.

Throughout this issue, you will see multiple ways to get involved in Europlanet activities and opportunities to shape the community, particularly at the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) 2022 in September. We look forward to seeing you in Granada! 

Anita Heward, Editor.
