The Planetary Laboratory Analysis Section (PLAS), Planetary Sciences Division, Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad is virtually organizing the First "Meteoroids, Meteors and Meteorites: Messengers from Space" Symposium (MetMeSS-2021) on November 22-23 29-30, 2021. MetMeSS-2021 will feature a broad research endeavour on planetary samples, which includes pre-solar to early solar materials in chondrites, returned samples from planetary bodies, meteorites from asteroids, Vesta, Mars and Moon, impact-related formations and impactor materials, terrestrial analogues of the planetary materials using advanced analytical techniques from elemental to isotopic level. Please join us for the all-virtual program for the first "Meteoroids, Meteors and Meteorites: Messengers from Space" Symposium! .
