ESA Science & Technology - Cosmochemistry of primitive bodies: the need for MarcoPolo-R - a European sample return space mission

Start date: 17 Dec 2012
Address: Salle ESPACE, Head Quarters of CNES, Paris, France

The goal of this workshop is to have a forum for scientists involved in past and future sample return missions and those who have a keen interest in deciphering the history of the Solar System. The aim is to gather PIs of past and future sample return missions, cosmochemists involved in the analysis of extra-terrestrial samples returned by space missions and/or meteorites, micrometeorites and IDPs as well as those engaged in modelling the early Solar System.
