SUMMARY:Natl Acad COMMITTEE ON EXOPLANET SCIENCE STRATEGY\, Mar 6-7\, 2018\, DC
DESCRIPTION:The National Academies Committee on Exoplanet Science Strategy will hold its first meeting March 6-7\, 2018 at the National Academy of Sciences building\, 2101 Constitution Ave.\, NW\, Washington\, DC.  More information is on the committee’s website.   Most of the sessions are open\, but some are closed. \nThe committee is co-chaired by David Charbonneau (Harvard) and B. Scott Gaudi (Ohio State).  The Statement of Task is as follows: \nStatement of Task \nIn preparation for and as an input to the upcoming decadal surveys in astronomy and astrophysics and planetary science\, the National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering and Medicine will appoint an ad hoc committee to perform a study with the following objectives: \n\nSurvey the status of the field of exoplanet science\, including the use of current and planned facilities such as Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite\, the James Webb Space Telescope\, the Wide Field InfraRed Survey Telescope\, and any other telescope\, spacecraft\, or instrument\, as appropriate;\nRecommend an Exoplanet Science Strategy that outlines the key scientific questions for exoplanet science and research and related near-\, medium-\, and far-term measurement and technology goals. The Strategy will include the search for life in the universe as well as cross-discipline opportunities in Earth science\, astrophysics\, heliophysics\, and planetary science.\nDiscuss which of the key goals of the committee’s Strategy could be addressed via current decadal survey recommended priority activities and also identify opportunities for coordination with international partners\, commercial partners\, and not-for-profit partners;\n\nIn the course of conducting this study\, the committee will consider and regularly consult with the concurrent study “State of the Science of Astrobiology\,” in the area of assessing habitability\, searching for signs of life\, and other relevant areas of scientific overlap . Also the committee will not revisit or redefine the scientific priorities or mission recommendations from previous decadal surveys.
