Abstract
Los estudios geológicos relacionados con la exploración planetaria cubren numerosos aspectos y no pueden entenderse actualmente sin considerar su carácter interdisciplinar La geología planetaria se encuentra en pleno desarrollo en los países avanzados y en España, va ocupando, aunque aún lentamente, mayores espacios, tanto en ámbitos científicos como docentes. Este artículo se corresponde con la mesa redonda “La geología en la exploración planetaria” celebrada durante el VII Congreso Geológico de España. Temáticamente se estructuró sobre la base de cuatro aspectos principales: a) la investigación (y conexiones interdisciplinares) en el marco de las ciencias de la tierra y del espacio; b) la docencia en Facultades y Escuelas de Ingeniería; c) la divulgación y su coordinación a distintos niveles (mediante las actividades de los museos de ciencias y la realización de congresos, conferencias y seminarios temáticos), y d) las perspectivas futuras de desarrollo en España.
Geological studies related to space exploration cover many different aspects that can not be faced without considering its interdisciplinary nature. Whereas planetary geology is significantly progressing in the academic and scientific contexts in Europe and the USA, the advance in Spain is still extremely slow. The present contribution is a summary of the debate from the round table entitled “Geology and space exploration” which was held during the “VII Congreso Geológico de España”. Thematically, the main subjects were the following: a) investigation (and interdisciplinary links) in the general framework of the Earth and Space sciences; b) teaching aspects in Faculties and Engineering Schools; c) public outreach and coordination at different levels (by the activities of science museums, congresses, workshops and thematic seminars), and d) future perspectives of development in Spain.
