Since the active Finnish participation in the Soviet Phobos project several research groups in Finland are planning to continue scientific collaboration with the Soviet, ESA and NASA planetary missions. This participation takes place both at the theoretical analysis level and at the level where various instruments will be delivered to the missions. The theoretical planetary group at the University of Helsinki Observatory, for instance, is developing several new techniques which can be applied to the mission data. An example of this is the flyby of the NASA Galileo spacecraft of an asteroid Gaspra next October for which new shape determination methods can be used. Planetary science is a highly multidisciplinic new area. In addition to traditional planetary astronomy, several physical sciences are merging. For this reason graduate students from various fields should consider this as an option for their research. Unfortunately we are still missing in Finland a good coordination of space sciences and it might be worth considering if a national center for these would be a solution.
