A Stellar Legacy: Women Who Have Redefined Space Science

A Stellar Legacy: Women Who Have Redefined Space Science 150 150 ieeeeduweek

Title: A Stellar Legacy: Women Who Have Redefined Space Science

Overview: Throughout history, women have expanded our understanding of the cosmos, often against the gravity of societal barriers and gender discrimination. This presentation celebrates their remarkable contributions and legacies as inspirations for future generations of women and minorities in science. From the early comet-hunting days of Caroline Herschel to the revolutionary astrophysical insights of Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin, these pioneers transformed our view of the universe and our place within it. The stories of these women reveal how perseverance, intellect, and vision can transcend discrimination, leaving us with an enduring reminder that reaching for the stars often begins with defying the limits placed upon us by society.

Space and Satellite Symposium

Space and Satellite Symposium 2000 2000 ieeeeduweek

Information theory has fundamentally shaped space communication system design and operation. Space and satellite channels present a wide variety of challenging conditions ranging from Doppler to very low signal-to-noise to extreme delays. Information theory provides powerful and useful tools and concepts ranging from Forward Error Correcting codes to Age of Information.

Authors have been invited to submit their work on topics including, but not limited to:

Communication in high frequency (mmWave, THz, optical) bands
New protocol requirements
Energy-efficient communications
Hardware-constrained communications, especially radiation constraints
Latency, delay, and age of information
Multi-user information theory
Uncoordinated random access

Our special theme is Amateur Radio and Amateur Satellite theory and practice. Presentations that highlight the role of amateur radio are appreciated and will be given additional recognition at the event.

This event includes space and satellite inspired musical pieces that will premiere at this event.
