CSSS is a summer school aimed at higher education students, researchers, entrepreneurs and anyone over the age of 18 who is interested in exploring the space economy or who wants to develop a business idea that uses space technology for terrestrial applications. The event encourages participants to propose ideas that will improve life on Earth by creating innovative services or products that incorporate space assets.
The 2023 edition focuses on the European Space Agency's (ESA) JUICE mission and features a diverse programme that encourages knowledge sharing and contact with institutions in the space sector. For three days, participants can attend conferences and receive mentoring from experts in the field of space, innovation and entrepreneurship, as well as socialise with Portugal's space community. Among the various activities is a visit to the Geophysical and Astronomical Observatory of the University of Coimbra (OGAUC) for the Astronomy Fair and Night Observation.
