Solar System Science with the ELTs

“Solar System Science with the ELTs” is the first meeting of a three-part conference series “Extremely Big Eyes on the Solar System”  which will take place in Europe (Spring 2022), North America (Fall 2022) and Asia (Spring 2023). This conference series aims to provide a forum where international experts will review the current questions in Solar System science and discuss how best to use the ELT, GMT and TMT to address them in synergies with current and future observing facilities and space missions.

“Solar System Science with the ELTs” will consist of two parts and focus on ESO’s ELT unique capabilities to address the open questions in the diverse subfields of Solar System science. A special emphasis will be put on how the ELT, alongside with the GMT and TMT will fit into the rich landscape of ground- and space-based facilities, in particular with the ongoing and future ESA missions.
