Technical sessions

With a record-breaking number of 4,336 abstracts submitted for review, the 2018 IAC Abstract Selection during the IAF Spring Meetings in Paris has been very challenging. We deeply appreciate the effort and contributions of the International Programme Committee Members, who worked with remarkable dedication to put together an outstanding Technical Programme.

Members of the IPC have accepted more than 2,600 abstracts in 5 categories. The 2018 Technical Programme will consist of more than 2,000 oral presentations in 179 diverse Technical Sessions (including 5 Global Technical Sessions) and More than 480 interactive presentations highlighting recent progress in all major areas of space.

It is the largest IAC Technical Programme to date. The choice of which session to attend will be hard indeed! The notification letters have been sent on 25 April – this date signals the end of a very competitive process through which many other potentially deserving abstracts have been turned away due to space limitations on the IAC Technical Programme.
