Abstract: Let $mathscrEightarrowmathbb{P}_m^{1}athbbQ$ be a non-trivial rational elliptic surface over $mathbbQ$ with base $mathbb{P}_m^{1}athbbQ$ (with a section). We conjecture that any non-trivial elliptic surface has a Zariski-dense set of $mathbbQ$-rational points. In this paper we work on solving the conjecture in case $mathscrE$ is rational by means of geometric and analytic methods. First, we show that for $mathscrE$ rational, the set $mathscrE(mathbbQ)$ is Zariski-dense when $mathscrE$ is isotrivial with non-zero $j$-invariant and when $mathscrE$ is non-isotrivial with a fiber of type $I{I}^{*}$, $II{I}^{\ast }$, $I{V}^{\ast }$ or $I_m^{\ast }$ ($mgeq0$). We also use the parity conjecture to prove analytically the density on a certain family of isotrivial rational elliptic surfaces with $j=0$, and specify cases for which neither of our methods leads to the proof of our conjecture.
