Space Science research is experiencing tremendous growth due to the advances in mathematical, computational and engineering techniques. In the “Mathematics in Space Science” session the mathematical aspects of some challenging questions of this very broad field will be discused, including Galactic Dynamics, Celestial Mechanics and Space Mission Design.
