OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Oxford Smart Space - Access to space: who, what, when and why?
Access to space is a moral, economic, security, sustainability and ethical issue – are we asking the right questions to explore and form markets?
It’s well past time to start asking ourselves the big hard questions about space. Who is space actually for? What will we bring with us from earth – literally and figuratively? Who goes in the first waves and how do we decide? Will we put forth the best of ourselves? Can we learn fast enough to save Earth?
Laura Anne Edwards, NASA Datanaut and core member of the Oxford Space Initiative has selected a panel of speakers to address these very questions and will be encouraging the audience to input their suggestions too.
