                                         [cid:image002.png at 01DCD96F.0C6F99F0] <https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/jplGC4QOPEim3W9WPHOf7U41omH?domain=sites.google.com>       [cid:image003.png at 01DCD96F.0C6F99F0] <https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/PSr4C5QPXJix4KpK8HOhNUkaFno?domain=sites.google.com>      [cid:image004.png at 01DCD96F.0C6F99F0] <https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/yMijC6XQ4Lf18909kHmirU5RTvm?domain=sites.google.com>

Remember, only mission leads need to submit an abstract on behalf of their team. You must have at least a team of 5 to submit an abstract:


  *   Mission lead
  *   Astronomer
  *   Engineer
  *   Instrument scientist
  *   Industry engagement specialist

Following the conference, all missions will be encouraged to submit an EOI to AAL with the opportunity to be awarded mission funding in the future.

Stay tuned for conference registration instructions from our Blue Horizons 2026 host, The Australian National University, opening June 1st.

Please share this call with your local astronomy and instrumentation colleagues.

Clear skies,
Sarah
