Formal collaboration with:
The Africa Off-Earth Network
Country:
Germany
Description:
The Africa Off Earth Network is an international network of scholars who share an interest in studying outer space from Africa. We engage with the material politics of outer space, anchoring our discussion with telescopes, satellites, and other space technologies to elaborate on how planetary and cosmic objects are rendered discernible, visible, and meaningful. In so doing we attend to the earthly articulations and life experiences of doing space science and technology research across Africa. AOEN has emerged out of a number of inter- and transdisciplinary workshops since 2018 that have addressed current investments in astronomy and space science infrastructures on the continent.
