First Decadal Plan for Australian Space Science

“空间科学”既指空间科学，也指太阳系中地球平均表面约10公里以外的一切，也指可以在太空中完成的科学。澳大利亚科学院正在通过其国家空间科学委员会制定第一个澳大利亚空间科学十年计划。这项提案的目的是敲定并发布该计划，并开始实施该计划。该提案涉及研究澳大利亚空间科学及其机构的能力、优势和劣势，确定与现有专门知识和国家研究优先事项相关的科学目标和问题，确定国内和国际现有的研究和战略机会，并将其纳入国家战略计划。预期成果是：(1)由美国航天局和澳大利亚空间科学界共同制定和批准的第一个澳大利亚空间科学十年计划。(2)AAS正式出版并向政府、媒体、澳大利亚公众和科学界介绍该计划。(3)开始执行该计划的讲习班，重点是：科学进展、战略优先事项、财务管理和澳大利亚空间科学家在政府、行业、公共和国际大力支持下参与国际空间努力并产生相关国家利益的资源。。

``Space science' refers both to the science of space, meaning everything in our solar system beyond about 10 km of Earth's mean surface, and to the science that can be done from space. The Australian Academy of Science (AAS), through its National Committee for Space Science (NCSS), is developing the first Decadal Plan for Australian Space Science. This proposal’s aim is to finalize and release the Plan and to start implementing it. The proposal involves researching the capabilities, strengths and weaknesses of Australian space science and its institutions, identifying the scientific goals and questions relevant to existing expertise and the National Research Priorities, determining the research and strategic opportunities available domestically and internationally, and combining these into a national strategic plan. Expected outcomes are: (1) A first Decadal Plan for Australian Space Science, developed and approved by both AAS and the Australian space science community. (2) Formal publication and presentation of the Plan by AAS to the Government, media, Australian public and scientific communities. (3) Workshops to start implementing the Plan, with emphases on: scientific progress, strategic priorities, financial management, and resources for Australian space scientists that participate in the international space effort with strong Government, industry, public and international support and produce associated national benefits. .
