Abstract


In the last few years from the beginning of COVID-19 pandemic to now a time, the scientific community all over the world is effected on academia and science, research has been just as severe as in other sectors throughout the world in all types of professional areas. Due to the needs for applying the pandemic constrains, as physical distancing and quarantine, laboratories around the world have wound down or restricted operations. These factors contribute strongly in unavoidably impacting space and astronomy.

Such changes have been added and appeared to scientists that forced them to reduce the fieldwork or surveys serve in present a new works to the field of physics and astronomy, so this leads some of the researchers contemplated leaving their scientific discipline due to a lack of resources, personnel and ability to continue experimental work or have been forced a decreasing amount of time to research. There is a fact that the "scientific research has changed the world" but now through this period and more than ever, "it needs to change itself".
