Exploration of planets is part of the space exploration of celestial structures of the outer space. Once a planet has been identified by astronomers and scientists as a target environment to be deeply analyzed, the technology needed to reach the objective are studied and developed by the industries. Complex space systems have to be designed to perform cruise, approach, landing and surface...

Robotics and human space exploration space missions have brought astonishing accomplishments till date (e.g. 12 humans actually walking on the lunar surface). The ESA roadmaps of technology for the exploration of the Solar System have been designed to set the goal of fostering robotics exploration with the final aim to support human exploration. Within those technology roadmaps, spacecraft...

Future exploration missions will require the development of new and advanced GNC-related technologies relying on the use of significantly more powerful avionics components than currently available. We put forward the argument that significant advances in low-cost/high-performance processing components, the widespread availability of specialized and open-source software/hardware resources, and...
