Likewise, the summit will also feature a discussion on the role of Space and the Oceans in collecting data to research and mitigate the effects of climate change. The session “What happened with Titan?” one year after the fatal implosion of the Titan submersible is another highlight, as well as the recording of an episode of the BBC radio program, The Infinite Monkey Cage, hosted by Robin Inc.
The Summit will kick off on June 15 at the Alfândega do Porto with the GLEX Ignition Session. With the support of the Portuguese Space Agency – Portugal Space, the GLEX 2024 will also dedicate the day to the evolution of space exploration (with a focus on the Moon). On June 18 and 19, at the Cultural and Congress Center of Angra do Heroísmo, participating explorers and scientists from around the world will present the latest discoveries and missions revolutionizing the future of Space, Oceans, and the Planet.
