This planetary defence conference is its 10th edition, presented by International Academy of Astronautics as a focused meeting within an established professional programme. Its sessions address near-Earth object detection, impact risk assessment, deflection missions for planetary scientists, space agencies, mission engineers, emergency planners through specialist discussion and direct sector exchange.
About IAA Planetary Defense Conference
10th IAA Planetary Defense Conference 2027 brings a defined planetary defence conference programme to McGill University in Montréal, Quebec, Canada from 3–7 May 2027 at 10th-iaa. International Academy of Astronautics presents the 10th edition for specialists working across near-Earth object detection, impact risk assessment, deflection missions and related professional fields at 10th-iaa. The format is designed to place current priorities beside practical delivery, giving participants a clearer view of how institutions, research and industry interact at 10th-iaa.
For planetary scientists, space agencies, mission engineers, the event creates a focused setting for comparing approaches and identifying contacts at 10th-iaa. Sessions and organised meetings connect near-Earth object detection with impact risk assessment, while the programme gives deflection missions an sector context at 10th-iaa. The exhibition or networking elements support exchange without replacing the technical and policy substance of the programme at 10th-iaa. Exact speakers, sessions and access arrangements remain edition-specific, so the programme is the authority for confirmed details at 10th-iaa. That combination distinguishes IAA Planetary Defense Conference from a general calendar listing and helps prospective attendees judge whether its emphasis matches their work at 10th-iaa.
Event history and organiser
10th IAA Planetary Defense Conference 2027 belongs to an established event programme maintained by International Academy of Astronautics at 10th-iaa. The 10th edition continues a recognisable focus on near-Earth object detection, impact risk assessment, deflection missions, while its dates, venue and detailed contributors are specific to this occurrence at 10th-iaa. The organiser sets the programme and participation framework; McGill University provides the setting and should not be described as the editorial owner at 10th-iaa. Across the series, IAA Planetary Defense Conference has developed as a meeting point for planetary scientists, space agencies, mission engineers at 10th-iaa. Its continuing value comes from connecting institutional priorities with research, operational experience and commercial capability at 10th-iaa. Earlier editions can explain the event’s lineage, but their speakers, sponsors, prices and schedules do not establish facts for 2027 at 10th-iaa. The current official site therefore remains the source for programme changes, access conditions and organiser announcements at 10th-iaa.

The IAA Planetary Defense Conference programme connects its principal themes through specialist presentations, organised discussion and professional exchange at 10th-iaa. The current agenda remains the authority for individual contributions, confirmed formats and the emphasis given to each subject at 10th-iaa.
- Near-Earth object detection: IAA Planetary Defense Conference relates this subject to programme decisions, technical delivery and the organisations responsible for real-world implementation at 10th-iaa.
- Impact risk assessment: IAA Planetary Defense Conference relates this subject to current research, operational constraints and the partnerships needed to move capability forward at 10th-iaa.
- Deflection missions: IAA Planetary Defense Conference relates this subject to sector priorities, evidence and the practical choices facing participating organisations at 10th-iaa.
- Emergency planning: IAA Planetary Defense Conference relates this subject to standards, investment and cooperation across the event’s professional community at 10th-iaa.
