SUMMARY:Altair Lunar Camp 4.0
DESCRIPTION:Altair Lunar Camp 4.0 is an immersive camping event where we will celebrate International Moon Day 2025 with the motto of “One Moon\, One Vision\, One Future”\, embracing our core principles of unity\, sustainability\, and fair access for everyone. \nOne Moon: Our camp emphasizes that the Moon is a shared heritage for all humanity. Through telescopic observations and hands-on astrophotography\, participants will feel this universal connection and develop a sense of responsibility to protect and explore the Moon sustainably. \nOne Vision: By bringing together students\, young professionals\, children\, families\, artists\, astronomers\, lawyers\, and anyone interested in space and camping\, we aim to build a community vision for the future of lunar exploration. Informative mini-seminars\, campfire talks\, and competitions will spark curiosity and collaboration across disciplines.One Future: The camp highlights the importance of sustainability in all space and lunar activities. We believe that sharing this vision with new generations will inspire them to turn lunar challenges into opportunities\, ensuring a better future for Earth and beyond. \nHighlights:• Hands-On Observations: Participants will set up tents by the Alpsari Lake (Cankiri\, Turkiye) and spend nights under the stars\, observing the Moon and deep sky objects with telescopes.• Astrophotography Workshop with Mustafa Aydin: One of the camp’s unique highlights will be an astrophotography workshop led by Mustafa Aydın\, an award-winning astrophotographer whose work “Stardust” has officially reached the lunar surface as part of the MoonMars Museum project and now rests in the Mare Crisium region of the Moon carrying humanity’s artistic legacy beyond Earth. Mustafa Aydın will share his experience photographing the night sky in light-pollution-free regions for over a decade\, and participants will learn how to capture the Moon even with a simple smartphone under his guidance.• Community Building: Social activities\, nature walks\, games\, and fireside talks with guest trainers will create a sense of unity and shared responsibility for sustainability.• Photo Exhibition Series: As in previous years\, Moon\, space\, and nature photos taken during the camp will be curated into exhibitions (as a difference\, physical only this year) in different cities\, extending the IMD spirit throughout the year.• Target Audience: Open to youth\, students\, young professionals\, families\, artists\, astronomy and law enthusiasts\, and anyone passionate about space\, nature and camping.• Participation Goal: The camp will host approximately 50 participants to ensure an inclusive and impactful experience.Partners & Support:Altair will organize the camp in collaboration with Stellar Experiences\, with the encouragement of Moon Village Association and UNOOSA\, and with the participation of the Ankara Bar Association Photography Club. Further local partnerships and sponsorships are being explored to strengthen the event’s impact.Post-Camp Impact:In addition to the on-site experience\, we plan to create awareness through:• Social media campaigns on Instagram and LinkedIn using #IMD2025\,• Exhibitions of photos taken during the camp in various public spaces\,• Inspiring new participants to join future space activities and contribute to a “sustainable spatial future”. \nSummary of Details:• Name: Altair Lunar Camp 4.0• Type: Educational\, Scientific\, Cultural• Date: August 2–3\, 2025• Location: Alpsari Lake\, Cankiri\, Turkiye• Format: In-person (camping); future exhibitions will be physical.• Promotion: Social media\, local and nat’l partnerships.

SUMMARY:100 Years from the Moon Landing to a Cislunar City
DESCRIPTION:International Moon Day is an opportunity to recognize the central role the Moon has played and continues to play in the history of space exploration. A symbol of cosmic proximity and technological challenge\, the Moon has represented a point of reference for humanity for millennia. Today\, between the memory of historic landings and ambitious future plans\, this anniversary renews the scientific community’s commitment to a new era of lunar exploration. As in 1969\, every extraordinary journey begins with a simple step. \nTen years ago in July\, the Center for Near Space of the Italian Institute for the Future was founded with the aim of spreading Space Culture\, supporting the development of Civil Astronautics\, and fostering the growth of the Private User Community. The launch of conceptual studies of orbital architecture with its OrbiTecture team soon evolved into the pioneering studies of the Cislunar City\, in the belief that the scientific enterprise of space exploration is rapidly evolving toward a permanent human presence in space. \nOn this basis and with these elements\, the session “100 YEARS FROM THE MOON LANDING TO A CISLUNAR CITY” aims\, on the one hand\, to celebrate man’s first step on the moon as humanity’s first step off Earth\, and on the other\, to project forward a century later\, when the stable existence of a community of approximately 1\,000 people in a dozen “neighborhoods” located between low Earth orbit and the Moon\, both orbit and surface\, will be possible and probable.The prospect of the emergence of the Cislunar City and its long-term configuration as a coordinated community\, not subordinated to terrestrial power centers\, requires a radical rethinking of the legal paradigm applicable to it. The purely geocentric perspective that informs the spirit of current regulations is proving increasingly inadequate to meet the needs of an autonomous\, stable\, and structured community in space. It is therefore appropriate\, if not necessary\, to establish a normative paradigm that goes beyond the limits of traditional international law to develop a space law for space\, conceived in light of the environmental\, social\, and operational specificities of the cislunar context.

SUMMARY:"From the International Space Station to the Lunar Space Station: Italy's Key Role and Opportunities for Latin America"
DESCRIPTION:Participation in the WSW is part of IILA’s initiatives in the field of science and space diplomacy\, including the noteworthy “Meeting of Space Agencies of IILA Member Countries\,” now in its fourth year\, and the project to build the first satellite mission by two IILA countries\, Panama and the Dominican Republic. It offers an opportunity to explore humanity’s journey to live sustainably and long-lastingly\, first in orbit and then on the lunar surface\, aiming one day to reach Mars. This journey\, through the use of innovative technologies that seek to make space a safe habitat\, with careful attention to astronauts’ needs and comfort\, allows them to face and overcome increasingly challenging challenges\, bringing to reality scenarios that were only a dream until recently. Space technologies have also opened up possibilities for a more sustainable future on our planet\, with positive implications for Latin American countries as well.

SUMMARY:Cortometraje Stop-Motion Viaje a la Luna con poblaciones vulnerables
DESCRIPTION:En conjunto con AESS UN del IEEE de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia se propone realizar una actividad junto a la fundación Tierra Nueva\, quienes trabajan con niñas\, niños y adolescentes en condición de vulnerabilidad. Se propone realizar a lo largo del  día una jornada donde exploraremos los fundamentos de la exploración lunar y el viaje espacial. Con esta base\, el equipo organizador\, compuesto por estudiantes universitarios en áreas de ingeniería y física\, guiarán a los niños para la realización de un cortometraje con técnica Stop-Motion sobre los próximos viajes a la Luna. Ellos mismos serán partícipes en la elaboración\, creación y ejecución de los elementos de escenografía\, guion\, historia y grabación. Finalmente\, el equipo organizador se encargará de la parte de edición y creación del producto final. El cortometraje tiene como fin ser proyectado de la mano con la fundación en otros escenarios culturales y divulgado en medios digitales.\n\nTogether with AESS UN of IEEE at the National University of Colombia\, an activity is proposed in collaboration with the Tierra Nueva Foundation\, which works with children and adolescents in vulnerable conditions. The plan is to hold a day-long session exploring the fundamentals of lunar exploration and space travel. Based on this\, the organizing team—made up of university students in engineering and physics—will guide the children in creating a stop-motion short film about the upcoming missions to the Moon. They themselves will participate in the development\, creation\, and execution of the scenery\, script\, story\, and filming. Finally\, the organizing team will be responsible for editing and producing the final product. The short film is intended to be showcased together with the foundation in other cultural venues and shared through digital media.
