Purpose: Moonshot Goal 8 brings together a diverse group of researchers in the humanities and social sciences as well as the mathematical and physical sciences, including meteorology, mathematical sciences, and civil engineering, in order to realize meteorological control and explore its potential for implementation in society. It is difficult for researchers in each of these disciplines to achieve their goals if they only promote research in their own specialized fields. Collaboration among disciplines and the creation of new disciplines through such collaboration are necessary. In particular, since the creation of new disciplines takes long time, it is necessary to actively encourage young researchers and students to take up the challenge. The purpose of this workshop is to search for the budding seeds of new academic disciplines that will contribute to the achievement of our goals through free and vigorous discussions among researchers without being bound by the boundaries of research and development projects.
