During the four-day symposium "Habitable Worlds Across Time and Space," scientists
from diverse fields will gather at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore,
Maryland, on April 28 through May 1, to discuss the formation and long-term evolution
of terrestrial bodies throughout the various phases of stellar and Galactic evolution.
A particular focus will be in how the specific conditions and challenges for
habitability on Earth extend to other bodies in the Solar System and beyond. A special Science Writers' Workshop will be held at the conclusion of the Symposium on May 1. Journalists interested in attending the Habitable Worlds Symposium talks and/or the Science Writers' Workshop should register by April 24 at
http://www.stsci.edu/institute/conference/habitable-worlds/register. Please write "PRESS" in the comments section. Complimentary registration is available to all working press members, but the cost of food is not included. To participate in morning and afternoon breaks during the Symposium, as well as the Poster Break/Reception
scheduled for April 28, please pay the $75 registration fee.
