Ad ASTRA Workshop: Agenda and Abstract Submission Updates

Organizers have issued updates on the agenda structure and abstract submission process for the Ad ASTRA Community Science Workshop. The meeting spans three thematic days—Science, Capabilities and Implementation, and Community Discussion—and will include plenaries, panels, breakout sessions, and posters to support community interaction.

Outcomes will inform priorities for mission concepts and help shape a balanced astrophysics portfolio consistent with Astro2020 recommendations and identified science gaps. Day 1 will concentrate on open science priorities and questions drawn from strategic documents such as the Astro2020 Decadal Survey and Enduring Quests - Daring Visions, as well as more recent science questions that submitted mission concepts aim to address.

Presentations are not limited to mission concept team members; other scientists are encouraged to submit abstracts to highlight important science questions and connect with concept teams.
