ABSTRACT SUBMISSION CLOSED
ICSO 2024 | International Conference on Space Optics
21-25 October 2024 | Antibes Juan-les-Pins, France
ICSO 2024 is the 15th edition of the largest meeting worldwide of experts working in all disciplines of Optical, Optoelectronic and Photonic Technologies for Space Applications.
Antibes is a town and seaside resort located between Cannes and Nice on the Côte d’Azur. The town enjoys a Mediterranean climate, with mild winters and warm, sunny summers.
It is famous for its old town, surrounded by 16th-century ramparts that house the star-shaped Fort Carré. The fort overlooks the luxury yachts moored in the Vauban marina. A wooded peninsula dotted with sumptuous villas, Cap d’Antibes separates Antibes from Juan-les-Pins, a chic seaside resort with a lively nightlife and home to the “Jazz à Juan” music festival.
Welcome
Welcome to the 15th edition of the International Conference on Space Optics ICSO 2024.
ICSO has been organised by CNES and ESA since 1991 and is an opportunity to share our achievements and our vision of space missions, instrumentation and optical technologies.
We are looking forward to having fruitful discussions with all the space optics community in the beautiful city of Antibes !
History
The purpose of ICSO is to bring together the Space Optics Community and exchange information and ideas on the Research, Development, Qualification and Flight Experience of using optical technologies for space missions. Technology experts meet Mission experts to address the lessons learnt from past developments and identify the next significant developments in employing lightwave technologies and techniques used in all types of Space Missions.

ICSO Proceedings in
CEAS Space Journal
The CEAS Space Journal includes a distinct field on “Optical, Optoelectronics and Photonics” and welcomes papers of ICSO in an extended version of the conference paper including theoretical analysis. Consider an electronic submission through the Journal website.
ISSO
The International School on Space Optics-ISSO is the sister event of ICSO targeting to offer a comprehensive overview of the Science and Engineering of Space Optics to young scientists and engineers interested in the field. It is held biannually alternating with ICSO. ISSO 2025 will be October 2025 (more information available soon).
