ESA's PLATO space mission is in
the final assembly stage before its launch. Its core science
program covers time domain astronomy for exoplanets and stellar
oscillations. A call for proposals for its Open Time Program is
anticipated for spring 2026.
If you are keen to explore whether PLATO can be used for your brilliant ideas in time-domain astronomy, but you are not very familiar with its instrumentation yet, then this workshop is for you. Our team and fellow participants will work with you to prepare and test your ideas in a welcoming and collaborative atmosphere, helping you get ready to write a successful proposal.
Sign up before July 1, 2025, to secure your spot. Attendance is limited to 50 people and is only possible after admission by the organizers.
