Meeting Location and Dates

The Exoplanets in Our Backyard 2 workshop scheduled for November 2–4, 2022, originally in Pasadena, California, has been moved to the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with virtual participation available.

Purpose and Scope

The goal of the workshop is to examine and discuss exoplanet-solar system synergies on planetary properties, formation, evolution, and habitability. Topics include comparative planetology on worlds near and far; solar system studies as a baseline for studies of extrasolar planetary properties and evolution; and lessons learned on planetary statistics, demographics, and system architectures from extrasolar planetary systems. This workshop aims to foster and build new collaborations among scientists in the solar system and exoplanet communities and help guide the direction of future exploration and observations of worlds in the solar system and beyond.
