The Force is everywhere…even in space 🚀

Tomorrow, Ota Michálek will be speaking at the FEI Journal Club. 🚀

The talk will cover NewSpace, CubeSats and how the satellites come from paper to orbit.

He’ll also touch on the role of a systems engineer, space debris, satellite constellations, and how you can get involved in the space industry already during your studies.

If you’re curious about space engineering, this is a good place to start.

Another milestone of EARS GNSS-RO completed! 🚀

The EARS GNSS-RO project, developed under the ESA InCubed Programme, has completed another important milestone - Medium Key Point (MKP). This marks an important point in the project de-risking cycle, bringing it closer to deployement in orbit. In this phase, the focus is on setting solid foundations from defining the mission architecture and aligning technical requirements, to shaping how GNSS Radio Occultation (RO) data will be collected and used.

EARS aims to bring high-quality atmospheric data through GNSS Radio Occultation, contributing to more accurate weather forecasting and climate monitoring. The project is being delivered in collaboration with Stellar Exploration as the prime contractor and RO payload owner and Groundcom. Spacemanic is taking care of the platform definition and mission planning.

Derisking is just the beginning, but it’s a critical step in turning the mission into reality.

More updates coming soon.
