The 10th Space Summer School, organized by the Space Education and Outreach - NCGSA Research Lab (SERL) of the National Center of GIS and Space Applications (NCGSA), concluded after five enriching days of immersive learning, expert-led sessions, and hands-on activities in space science and technology.

The programme brought together 70 participants from more than 30 schools, offering a comprehensive 30-hour learning experience, including 12 hours of lectures and 18 hours of hands-on activities. Participants explored astronomy, aviation, rocketry, satellite technology, and Earth observation through activities including CanSat design, development and launch, RC aircraft flights, telescopy workshops, solar observations, satellite imagery analysis, aqua rocket launches, and interactive scientific demonstrations. A visit to SUPARCO also provided valuable insights into Pakistanโ€™s satellite missions, national space capabilities, and Space Vision 2040.

We are thankful to more than 25 national and international subject matter experts for their valuable contributions, which greatly enriched the learning experience. A big applause to the IST student management team for their dedication and efforts in making this event a remarkable success.

The students demonstrated remarkable curiosity, enthusiasm, discipline, and dedication throughout the programme. Their active engagement in lectures, workshops, practical activities, and discussions played a vital role in making the 10th Space Summer School a meaningful and successful learning experience.
