Since its creation, the Institute of Space Sciences (ICE/IEEC-CSIC) has continuously carried out public outreach and science awareness to society. As part of its educational and outreach activities, the ICE?s outreach department elaborates press releases based on the scientific results obtained by the different theoretical and observational research groups.

It coordinates interviews for the media (articles in newspapers, electronic articles, radio, television, blogs, Internet 2.0), organizes public talks to the general audience as well as talks addressed to primary and high school students. The department also organizes and collaborates in local and nationwide exhibitions, presenting not only the Institute?s accomplished research but also more general topics within the field of Astronomy, Cosmology, Geophysics, and Remote Sensing among others.

Finally, the ICE also participates in the annual National Science Week organized by different Spanish state agencies, and in science and education fairs
