Description

Introduction

Since the first CubeSat Industry Day event was held in June 2013, there has been a great deal of progress in European CubeSat system capabilities, subsystem products/technologies, launch services, and mission operations experience. The market is widening and government as well as commercial customers are starting to utilise these small systems for real missions. ESA has several CubeSat In-Orbit Demonstration projects and technology development activities ongoing with industry/research institutes, and several CubeSat/nano-satellite related studies are underway or completed. The event serves as a forum to exchange information on the latest industry developments/future priorities and the ESA activities in the CubeSat nano-satellite domain, update technology and mission roadmaps, as well as to discuss the technical/regulatory challenges of moving towards operational missions serving end users.
