Abstract Spacecraft trajectory optimization is essential for all the different phases of a space mission, from its launch to end-of-life disposal. Due increase in number satellites and future missions beyond our planet, increasing level autonomy spacecraft key technical challenge. In this context, traditional methods, like direct indirect methods are not suited autonomous or on-board operations due lack guaranteed convergence high demand computational power. Heuristic control laws represent...
Abstract. Earth observation satellites are equipped with navigation components (star trackers, gyroscopes) which estimates the attitude of satellite, corresponding to its orientation in orbital reference frame. This equipment is essential for localisation images done a posteriori and registration different pushbroom sensor. concerns both spectral bands multi-temporal series. However, required accuracy not always compatible performance restitution. Moreover, some specific applications need...
The ICE Cubes Facility is a capable experiment platform on board the Columbus Module of International Space Station that offers flexibility to host many different experiments. suited for any scientific research and technological demonstrator requires study effects microgravity radiation exposure in pressurised volume. Cube Service also open schooling levels (primary, secondary, universities) STEAM curricula University students (Master PhD) opportunity design, develop, test operate real ISS...
