15th EANA Astrobiology Conference

EANA15 will be hosted in Noordwijk in the Netherlands at the ESTEC complex of the European Space Agency (ESA) from 6 till 9 October 2015 (Tue-Fri).

The conference will focus on ‘Astrobiology and Spaceflight' and will include lectures by ESTEC colleagues.
With Rosetta/Philae coming to a conclusion, Expose-R2 in orbit, ExoMars in the pipeline and Nanosatellites under consideration, the focus comes at an ideal time.
Scientists from all disciplines are invited and other topics in astrobiology are very welcome.

Students Contest ‘Space Factor' and Annual Poster Awards
In the past years the Space Factor Students Contest was organized during the EANA conferences, bringing together young Astrobiologists in a session dedicated solely to the contest. In addition, EANA awards prizes for the best posters presented by students and young scientists at the annual workshops. The awards website brings together all information on the contest and lists past awardees.
