We’re Going to COSPAR-K!

Young people, parents, and teachers across Australia will soon have an opportunity to learn from some of the leading and most inspiring people from the global space sector, at the upcoming COSPAR-K event at early 2021.

COSPAR-K is the flagship science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) event that is being hosted through the partnership between the international scientific assembly, COSPAR-2021-Hybrid and the NSW Department of Education’s STEM Industry School Partnerships (SISP) program.

The event, being held both in-person in Sydney, as well as virtually online between Friday 29 January and Tuesday 2 February 2021, is free with several types of bookings that could suit any attendees’ requirements and location – including the FREE streaming of events online through COSPAR-K TV powered by Microsoft.

Attendees will have the opportunity to have an interactive and hands-on experience with rockets, robots, bio-domes, VR helicopters, drones and giant Lunar and Martian maps in the Awesome Activities Arena.

And to keep the inspiration flowing – an array of talks about astronauts, Mars, satellites, how to get involved in space, and more classroom activities will be available at the Spectacular Speakers Schedule. There are even virtual activities to get involved in too!

The full program for the event can be found here.

SpaceAustralia.com is excited to be supporting this event as an official partner to COSPAR-K and will be covering stories from all the talks – including interviewing several keynote speakers, whilst also attending in-person to bring daily wrap-ups from the ground.

Keep a lookout over the next few months as we start to profile speakers and reveal more details of this exciting and inspiring event.

If you’re thinking about attending in person, spots are filling fast – so best to book early. And if you can’t make it in person, stream it all online from the comfort of your own home or classroom, through COSPAR-K TV.
