• possibilities for putting together joint proposals for European Training Network (the deadline is in January 2017) – if you have interest to participate in such an effort, please submit your ideas in the registration form.
• a group of BigSkyEarth members started working on ideas how to improve research on meteor phenomena from Astro- and Geo-physics perspective and to transform it into a Big Data science. If you are interested to join this collaboration, indicate it in the registration form.
• another joint topic that emerged is creating a science case for a stratospheric  research platform – an airship that would carry a stable payload platform for Astro- and Geo-experiments at 20km altitude. If you are interested to discuss this effort at the meeting, please propose in the registration form ideas about its possible science usage.
