SUMMARY:Exoplanets 6 Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Exoplanet research is experiencing exciting times. Space missions and cutting-edge ground-based instruments are continually uncovering new populations of planets and enabling their detailed characterization. Along with advancements in theoretical models\, these discoveries are providing unprecedented insights into the processes of planet formation and evolution\, while also revealing the interiors and atmospheres of these distant worlds. \nIn 2026\, the PLATO mission will be launched\, marking the beginning of a new chapter in this quest. Shortly after\, missions like Roman and ARIEL\, alongside the first generation of extremely large telescopes\, will further complement this exploration. Together with current instruments and missions such as JWST and Gaia\, a new window will open allowing a unique view into the diversity and properties of exoplanets\, from hot giant planets to cool neptunes and rocky worlds. The stage is set to pursue one of the holy grails in the field: detecting and characterizing Earth-like planets\, including searching for potential bio-signatures\, and understanding their frequency in the Galaxy. \nIt is in this context that we invite the entire exoplanet community to join us in Porto for Exoplanets 6. The conference will take place in Porto\, Portugal\, between the 29th of June and the 3rd of July 2026\, and cover all state-of-the-art aspects of exoplanet science\, including: \n\nPresent day results of exoplanet research\nThe detailed characterization of exoplanets and exoplanetary systems: architecture\, interior models\, atmospheres\, astrobiology\nNext steps towards the detection of the lowest mass/smallest exoplanets: the methods and main the challenges (data analysis\, improved treatment of astrophysical variability and instrumentation-based systematics)\n\nFor inquiries email exoplanets6@iastro.pt.

SUMMARY:2026 International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC)
DESCRIPTION:IREC isn’t just a competition\, it’s a launchpad for innovation and careers. This year\, 175 teams have successfully applied and been accepted to participate in the 2026 IREC — to push the limits of high-powered rocketry\, applying classroom theory to real-world engineering challenges\, and break new IREC records! \nThe Experimental Sounding Rocket Association (ESRA) is a non-profit organization founded in 2003 for the purpose of fostering and promoting engineering knowledge and experience in the field of rocketry. ESRA’s mission is to provide safe and exciting opportunities for academic groups to compete in aerospace challenges. \nIn 2006\, ESRA established the International Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC) which has since grown from a handful of U.S. based collegiate teams to welcoming 150+ collegiate teams from ~22 countries on 6 different continents. During the IREC each team designs\, builds\, tests and launches rockets with a payload size >2kg and target altitudes of 3\,000 to 30\,000 meters. Rockets are typically 10 to 20 centimeters in diameter and 2.5 to 6 meters long. Multi-stage rockets and all chemical propulsion types (solid\, liquid and hybrid) are allowed.
