Of particular interest to Inside GNSS readers is "Scientific Applications of Galileo and Future Global Navigation Satellite Systems," the topic of a special issue of the COSPAR journal, Advances in Space Research (ASR) scheduled to be published late in 2010.  These abstracts are due on March 1, 2010. Contact guest editor Pascal Willis for more information.

COSPAR was established by the International Council of Scientific Unions in 1960 as a neutral forum for space scientists during the Cold War. Now its primary focus is the scientific assembly and other events for scientists to present new research, exchange ideas, and discuss space research problems. It also advises various international decision-making bodies on space research issues.
