Plenary 8: Czech Space Visions
Friday 1 October 2010 12:15-13:45
Today's exploration of space relies on two important elements: observations made in-situ and numerical experiments performed on large supercomputers. The Astronomical Institute and the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic) are highly involved in space sciences and related research in both areas.
Over the past few years two main projects have been carried out. First is the development and usage of supercomputing facility called Amalka and the second is development and operation of DSLP (Dual Segmented Langmuir Probe) instrument for PROBA 2 mission.
