The Space Science Committee PAS Gdansk Branch and the Institute of Oceanology PAS invite to the conference Science for Sea and Space on 09 April 2025.

This is the next event in the series of conferences organised on the initiative of the Space Science Committee of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Gdańsk Branch, in cooperation with the Baltic Sea and Space Cluster under the auspices of the Polish Space Agency.

This event is a continuation of the discussion started in previous years by the circles of science, business and administration, identifying problems, needs and common points in areas seemingly only distant from each other: maritime and space.

The interdisciplinary nature of these conferences provides a platform for the exchange of views, the presentation of knowledge and discussion of research results and issues relating to engineering, regulation, management and technology in both these areas, their interrelationships and opportunities for practical applications.

The premise of the conference organisers is to present the latest scientific developments and their applications in the maritime and space areas.

Three panel discussions are planned: Young Stars with short speeches presenting the achievements of young people, the best of which will be awarded by the chairman of the Space Sciences Committee of the Gdansk Branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Prof. Edmund Wittbrodt, a panel of experts from the world of science and a panel of practitioners presenting the application possibilities of scientific achievements in administration, economy and other areas of activity.

On behalf of the Organising Committee, we encourage you to participate in this event. Participation in the conference is free of charge, however, due to the limited number of places, we ask all interested persons to register through the form placed on the website www.iopan.pl/KNK2025, where you will also find up-to-date information about the conference. If you are interested in presenting a paper, please send titles and short abstracts of your proposed presentations in Polish and English to knk2025@iopan.pl by 17 March 2025.
