ESA Science & Technology - 36th ESLAB Symposium: Earth-like Planets and Moons

Start date: 04 Jun 2002
Address: ESTEC, Noordwijk, Netherlands

This symposium aims at comparing properties of Earth-like Planets and Moons. This covers bodies such as Earth, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Moon, Vesta, Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto, Titan, Triton, Pluto/Charo and terrestrial exoplanets. We shall try to understand their observed similarities and differences, and give both an Earth-oriented and a cosmic perspective. The programme is based on comprehensive invited reviews, supported with interdisciplinary contributed papers, and a large body of posters on specific results, methods and objects.
