About COSPAR Scientific Structure Meetings Publications Awards Associated Supporters Associates Links

Any scientist engaged in space research becomes an Associate by registering for a COSPAR biennial Scientific Assembly, a COSPAR Colloquium, a COSPAR Capacity Building Workshop, or by holding interorganizational or governing functions within the COSPAR structure. The status of Associate is retained for five years after attending an Assembly, Colloquium, or Capacity Building Workshop. Associates should be affiliated to at least one but not more than three COSPAR Scientific Commissions.

Each Associate has the right to take part in the scientific activities of COSPAR, in particular those of the Scientific Commission(s) to which he or she is affiliated. Associates may attend the meetings of Commission(s) to which they are affiliated and take part in all discussions and votes of the relevant Commissions. These meetings generally take place during the biennial Scientific Assembly. As long as the COSPAR budget permits, each Associate also receives a complimentary subscription to Space Research Today, COSPAR's information bulletin.

If you are an Associate and your contact information has changed since last reported to the Secretariat or if you are an Associate and have not regularly been receiving your bulletin (three times per year), please take the time to fill out and return the following form.
