“If you want to make one giant leap with us this summer, together with one hundred already selected participants – sign up before 30 April 2016!” - John Connolly, director of the Space Studies Program 2016.

In less than three months over 100 space enthusiasts will participate in ISU’s 29th Space Studies Program. This session located for the first time in the Middle East, is hosted by The Technion, Haifa, Israel, one of the first universities having launched a satellite and holding a space program.
The participants will be welcomed by Prof. Pini Gurfil, head of the Asher Space Research Institute and director of the local organizing committee of this SSP. They will be exposed, in the true spirit of ISU, to a fine and dense mix of activities including an encounter with Buzz Aldrin – ISU Chancellor, Rona Ramon, Ilan Ramon’s widow, Jessica Meir a model rocket launch from a kibbutz, a spectacular viewing of a meteor shower.
