Astronauts and Robots 2015: Frank Culbertson, Orbital ATK
Frank Culbertson gave a presentation on astronauts and robotics as partners in space science and exploration. He discussed how robotic and human exploration complement each other, with robotic missions providing critical precursor information to enable human exploration. While robots have advantages like withstanding harsh environments, ultimately humans provide operational flexibility and inspire funding through their presence. Culbertson argued robotic and human partnerships will be important for future exploration missions, with robots conducting precursor mapping and humans allowing flexible teleoperation of surface activities.

Light sailing: the future of interstellar travel or science fiction?
Light sailing is a proposed method of spacecraft propulsion using radiation pressure from starlight to power sail-equipped craft. The first light sail demonstration mission, IKAROS, launched in 2010 and successfully used sunlight to propel the craft. The upcoming LightSail 2 mission in 2019, led by The Planetary Society, aims to raise the orbit of its small craft using solely sunlight. The most ambitious light sailing proposal is Breakthrough Starshot's goal of using ground-based lasers to accelerate tiny nanocraft to 1/4 the speed of light to reach Alpha Centauri within decades. Light sailing could enable less expensive and more far-reaching space exploration if these pioneering attempts are successful.
Nasa Returns to the Moon
This document discusses NASA's latest plans to return to the Moon under the Artemis program. It notes this is the third attempt by NASA to return astronauts to the lunar surface within a decade, following previous initiatives in 1989-1993 and 2005-2009. The key difference this time is greater involvement of commercial partners in space exploration. Specific aspects outlined include a planned 2023 launch of the Viper lunar rover, NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services awarding contracts to three companies to deliver payloads to the Moon by 2021, and use of SpaceX's Falcon rocket to launch astronauts. The document also describes an experiment to grow Arabidopsis seeds on the Moon to study plant growth in lunar gravity and radiation conditions.
Sandra Dawson - TMT Update
The document discusses plans for a new astronomical observatory called the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) to be located on Mauna Kea in Hawaii. It describes some of the exciting discoveries made by existing observatories on Mauna Kea like Keck and CFHT. It outlines key aspects of the planned TMT, including its large 30-meter mirror, advanced adaptive optics to correct for atmospheric distortions, and its potential to enable new studies in the formation of stars and planets and the nature of the early universe.

ILOA Galaxy Forum Hawaii 2015 -- R. Pierre Martin and Steve Durst
This document discusses the potential for conducting extragalactic astronomy from the lunar surface. It notes that over 100 billion galaxies exist in the universe and outlines some key questions about how galaxies form and evolve. Observational requirements for studying galaxies include low background noise, access to multiple wavelengths, and the ability to conduct long-term monitoring. The lunar surface provides these advantages with its darkness and stability. The document describes how the Lunar Ultraviolet Telescope (LUT) aboard the Chinese Chang'e 3 mission successfully imaged the nearby galaxy M101, demonstrating the feasibility of astronomy from the Moon. It concludes that while still in early stages, lunar astronomy could enable studies difficult to conduct elsewhere and warrants further exploration.

-- Large optical telescopes on the Moon – Paul Hickson, Professor, Department of Physics and Astronomy, The University of British Columbia.
The Moon offers some unique advantages for future very-large optical telescopes. The airless environment, slow lunar rotation and precession would enable a zenith-pointing telescope, located near one of the lunar poles, to survey a large region of sky and study the epoch of galaxy formation. I will present results from a recent NASA/CSA study that considered the feasibility of lunar liquid-mirror telescopes having apertures in the 20 to 100 metre range.
