A major outreach highlight took place on June 19 with the special event “The Next 30 Years from the Discovery of the First Exoplanet”. The year 1995 marked both the founding of ISSI and the discovery of 51 Pegasi b, the first exoplanet detected orbiting a Sun-like star, a discovery that transformed our understanding of planetary systems. To celebrate this milestone and look ahead to the future of exoplanet science, ISSI hosted a public evening of talks and a panel discussion at the University of Bern. The event brought together leading figures in the field, including Michel Mayor, Didier Queloz, Sara Seager, Jonathan Lunine, Laura Kreidberg, Doug Lin, and Carole Mundell, with Thomas Zurbuchen moderating the discussion and Willy Benz serving as master of ceremonies. Together they explored how the field has evolved since its beginnings and discussed the prospects for discovering potentially habitable worlds and signs of life beyond the Solar System.
