contents We construct the conformal scattering operator for the scalar wave equation on the Vaidya spacetime using vector field methods. The spacetime we consider is Schwarzschild, near both past and future timelike infinities, in order to use existing decay results for the scalar field, ensuring our energy estimates. These estimates guarantee the injectivity of the trace operator and the closure of its range. Finally, we solve a Goursat problem for the scalar waves on null infinities, demonstrating that the range of the trace operator is dense. Consequently, this implies that the scattering operator is an isomorphism.
