A National Platform for Space Science

The Theoretical Physics and Didactics Laboratory of the Faculty of Physics, under the auspices of Houari Boumediene University of Science and Technology, is opening its doors to the scientific community and enthusiasts.

The aim of this first national workshop is to create a unique training and exchange platform, uniting academic communities and dedicated amateurs around an integrated vision of the field.

Structured around plenary lectures covering astrophysics, astronomy, cosmology, space technology, and space weather, it is designed to break down disciplinary boundaries and stimulate the emergence of interdisciplinary synergies.

The workshop will include a significant practical component, with observation sessions, astrophotography training, and a dedicated poster session for young researchers.
