  1. Europa Focus Group Activities

    2006

    The EFG met most recently at a workshop, held at NASA Ames Research Center, from February 27 – 28, 2006, involving about 115 participants, including scientists and engineers, faculty, students and elected officials. The goals of the workshop were to: 1) enable participants to inform each other of their results on current projects related to Europa astrobiology, 2) obtain briefings on the current plans for Europa exploration, and 3) address critical topics for astrobiology, such as the need for in situ measurements on or near the surface of Europa. This last goal is particularly important for planning specific flight projects. Presentations from this meeting are available at: http://astrobiology.asu.edu/focus/europa/discuss/discuss.html
