The motivation behind the AMADEE missions lies in the imperative need to advance our understanding of the operational challenges associated with crewed exploration beyond Earth. By replicating mission operations in extreme terrestrial environments, we aim to identify and address the technological, scientific, and psychological challenges to ensure human-robotic missions' safety and scientific discovery. This initiative aligns with OeWF's commitment to contributing to the global space exploration community.
This townhall meeting welcomes researchers, scientists, engineers, and professionals from diverse backgrounds who are involved or interested in human-robotic analog missions. Participants at all career stages will find a platform to share their expertise, exchange ideas, and engage in a multidisciplinary dialogue. We encourage the involvement of individuals passionate about advancing space exploration, ensuring a dynamic and inclusive discussion.
Expected Outcomes: The Townhall meeting on AMADEE missions fosters collaboration, knowledge exchange, and the collective shaping of the future of crewed exploration. By bringing together experts and enthusiasts, we anticipate valuable discussions on mission architecture, focusing on maximizing the scientific return, life support systems, and the psychological challenges associated with extended space travel. The outcomes of this meeting will contribute to the refinement of analog mission methodologies, the development of innovative technologies, the enhancement of our preparedness for actual human missions to other worlds, and the substantial creation of networking opportunities among diverse stakeholders. This networking aspect will further enhance collaboration, providing a foundation for future joint initiatives in space exploration."
