About

Join the Summer School in Space Ethics at the University of Padua and explore the moral challenges of our presence beyond Earth.

By attending classes, you will build a solid foundation in applied ethics and tackle key topics like space debris, dual-use technologies, and space colonization.

You will engage in debate around the future of nanosatellite constellations, planetary protection, and space as a shared resource and you will learn how to balance innovation with responsibility in an increasingly crowded and contested space environment.

When visiting the Asiago Space Observatory you will be able to engage with scientists on the ethical frontiers of space research.

The legacy of Galileo Galilei will be there to explore through immersive visits to historic sites linked to his discoveries.

A unique mix of critical thinking, science, and cultural heritage is there to enjoy.

This Summer School is ideal for students, researchers, and professionals who are passionate about the future of space
