LASP Public Lectures

LASP Public Lectures share with the public a variety of subjects related to LASP’s work, including exciting science, new missions, technological advancements, and more.

Educational and entertaining, the series coincides with the University of Colorado Boulder’s academic calendar.

LASP Science Seminars

LASP seminars are generally held every Thursday at 4:00 PM during the academic year. They are typically hybrid presentations held both in person and on Zoom. If you are interested in attending, please contact scienceseminars@lasp.colorado.edu to be added to the mailing list.

Outreach

Space science research is exciting! LASP’s Office of Communication Management conveys what’s happening in our lab and across the universe through a regular newsletter, tours, and special events. We also partner with many groups on the CU Boulder campus who organize a wide variety of outreach programs.
