The aim of this meeting is to connect researchers engaged in the UK’s planetary exploration program with the geoscience community, media and funders. It will showcase the role geoscience techniques play in planetary exploration and the impact that that has on our understanding of the natural world.

This is particularly timely in light of the UKSA space frontiers work which may have significant implications for how space exploration that utilises geoscience techniques is supported.
We will hold a one-day hybrid meeting on Thursday 27 November consisting of a programme of science talks throughout the day, a community update session, and a planetary exploration showcase as part of a stakeholder engagement event in the afternoon/early evening. This will also serve as a public launch of the UK Planetary Forum (UKPF) as the newest special interest group of the Geological Society, and also affiliated with the RAS. The meeting will be hosted at The Geological Society, Burlington House, Piccadilly, London, W1J 0BG.
