Special Session: Chelyabinsk Event
Chair: David Morrison
First Scientific Session on the Chelyabinsk Bolide:
A special session on the Chelyabinsk event of February 15 will be held at the beginning of the Planetary Defense Conference in Flagstaff, AZ, April 14-19. In view of wide public and press interest in this unique meteor strike, this special session is open to the public as well as those registered at the Conference. It will be the first scientific analysis of what happened on February 15, and the implications for planetary defense generally. Organizers of the session are David Morrison, Mark Boslough, Clark Chapman, and Alan Harris. The program is held at the High Country Conference Center in Flagstaff.

The theme for the 2013 IAA Planetary Defense Conference the conference was “Gathering for Impact!”
The conference included an exercise where participants simulated the decision-making process for developing deflection and civil defense responses to a hypothetical asteroid threat.
Participants developed a set of actionable recommendations that will help to improve our ability to successfully defend Earth from possible impacts and prepare for unexpected NEO-related disasters.
The aim of the student competition is to help promote academic work and informed political debate by enhancing research and general understanding essential for sound decision making on NEO impact threats in years to come.
