    • Ashley Smith (School of GeoSciences, University of Edinburgh)
      Untangling Magnetic Fields
      I will talk about Earth’s protective shield and the harsh atmosphere of the Sun: Looking at the complex magnetic fields around Earth and using ESA’s Swarm mission to probe the mysteries both deep inside the planet and high above it due to space weather
      .
    • Matjaz Vidmar (Royal Observatory Edinburgh / University of Edinburgh)
      What’s Really Up There?
      A light hearted exploration of life in and out of various orbits with topics on astronaut food in space and on Earth, satellite surveillance of your back yard and establishing a new empire in the sky with Lunar and Martian colonies. With some discussion, jokes, and even a tiny bit of terrible tasting poetry – what is not to like?!
