Ad ASTRA community science workshop: agenda and abstract guidance

We are sharing updates on the agenda structure and abstract submissions for the Ad ASTRA Community Science workshop. Organized by the Astrophysics Division, the event spans three thematic days—Science, Capabilities and Implementation, and Community Discussion—to link scientific priorities with technological readiness and mission implementation.

Plenaries, panels, breakout sessions, and posters will structure discussions, and the workshop outcomes will help prioritize mission concepts and shape a balanced astrophysics portfolio consistent with the Astro2020 recommendations and identified science gaps. Mission concept presentations are divided between a Science focus on Day 1 and a Capabilities and Implementation focus on Day 2.

Concept teams and the broader community are invited to submit abstracts for both days. Presenting as a poster is an option, and abstracts for which there is insufficient room in parallel sessions may be offered poster slots.
