Issue 2 – Take Off

Read in the fully formatted PDF of the Europlanet Magazine.

As 2021 draws to a close, there has been no let-up in the extraordinary range of activities going on in our community. The second virtual Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC2021) in September was an opportunity for us to celebrate this, and to come together to share experiences and discuss how we can support each other in these challenging times. 

In this second issue of the Europlanet Magazine, we find out about some of the science presented at EPSC2021, examine ways our community is adapting to a virtual world, hear personal experiences about a career in planetary science, and look from a political perspective at Europe’s role in the new Space Race. 

This month’s feature on Transnational Access highlights the diverse research supported by the Europlanet Research Infrastructure and, following a major review of the project, we look at some of the outcomes to date from the access and services that it provides for the community. 

Throughout this issue, you will see multiple ways to get involved in Europlanet activities and opportunities to shape the community. In 2022, we encourage you to join in!
