This research community has members representing government agencies, the private sector and university systems across the world. The workshop usually attracts more than 150 participants across these institutions from all over the world. The primary objectives of the workshop are to: foster improved communication across national boundaries; expose the aerothermodynamic ablation modeling community to new ideas and techniques from adjacent disciplines; bring new experimental techniques to bear on the problem; discuss challenges faced in adapting existing techniques to address new applications. Venue The Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California will provide the venue for the 2023 Ablation Workshop On November 7th and 8th. Conveniently located just down "the street" (Highway 101) from NASA Ames Research Center, the museum hosts a unique collection of artifacts and exhibits documenting the history of Silicon Valley, and computing generally. NASA Ames provided the first site for the museum as they were constructing the current building, and they are happy to be partnering with NASA to put on the workshop. This year's program will also feature a third day, where ITAR work may be presented. The ITAR session will take place on-site at Moffett Field. The workshop hosts will also be facilitating tours of many NASA facilities for workshop participants. Details on both the tours and the ITAR session will be provided in the coming weeks, so stay tuned to the website.
