About COSPAR-K

Australia is buzzing with space conversations. With a new Australian Space Agency (ASA), there’s a momentous research push, space-related start-ups and more opportunities than ever for young Australian’s to be part of the journey.

COSPAR-K will be a dedicated STEM Park as a legacy from the January event of COSPAR 2021. There will be interactive experiences and activations especially for students, teachers and parents to participate in. Industry and government partners will provide opportunities to discover the latest innovations and also provide fun through exploration. We want COSPAR-K to be the space to ignite passion in our future thinkers and leaders.

This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to spark the next generation of STEM talent!

Post Congress Information

The Covid-19 pandemic forced deferral of the Sydney Assembly from August 2020 to January 2021 and redesign of the presentation mode from 100% in-person to either 100% virtual presentation or a mix of virtual and in-person presentations (COSPAR-2021-Hybrid).

During the events of the week, we all engaged with an extremely high quality COSPAR scientific program. There were 615 sessions, each delivered twice; over 2,000 scientific presentations; and three excellent workshops led by our anchor sponsor Lockheed Martin. Over 2,000 delegates were active on the platform each day. From the app, there have been over 2,000 downloads, more than 117 thousand page hits, and the number keeps rising. The assembly website has had over unique 11,000 users accessing content.
