SMW-15 offered five different thematic groups:

Vice Rector Anne Christine Johannessen held the welcoming speech. 
Leader of the Education and Public Outreach Group at the Birkeland Centre for Space Science, Arve Aksnes held the presentation; "How is Earth coupled to Space?"

From Bergen, we travelled west by bus for the SMW-15 excursion on Wednesday. We stopped at the Costal Museum in Øygarden for an experience of costal culture from the Stone Age to the Oil Age. After lunch, the ketch Loyal arrived to bring us back to Bergen.

The SMW-15 dinner was held at the Old Bergen Museum on Thursday night, and the SMW-15 ended after lunch on Friday.
