CranSEDS Space Journey

From initial mission requirements to flight operation simulation, Sylvain Lodiot from European Space Agency will share his experience as Hera Spacecraft Operation Manager, a position he had on Rosetta and Solar Orbiter.  

As a robotics technologist, Jeff Delaune was part of the navigation team for NASA’s Mars Helicopter flight project. 

He will explain the key concepts of a mission of such size in terms of state estimation, sensor fusion, perception, computer vision, system engineering and mission design.

55 years ago at NASA, Jerry Woodfill was the sole Apollo 11 and 13 Spacecraft Warning System Engineer. He was responsible for the Apollo 13 alarm and words, "Houston, we have a problem.” 

Who else but someone that lived it to tell a story?

The "3, 2, 1 and liftoff!" Workshop will offer students different career paths in space, from positions in industry to continue studying with a PhD or even creating their own company.

For that Oliver Blyth (Spacecraft Systems Graduate Engineer at Airbus), Zaria Serfontein (PhD Candidate at Cranfield University and UKSEDS Vice-Chair) and Rabi Boundi (CEO & Co-founder of Space Impulse) will join the discussion!

The "CranSEDS: Space is Our Mission" will give attendees the opportunity to discover what CranSEDS is up to!

With Maria Carrillo Barrenechea (Vicinity - Satellite Design Competition), Mikel Bueno Viso (CRUZER - Olympus Rover Trials), Adrien Gilbert (ANY-1, UKSEDS Orbex National Rocketry Championship), Paul Bauerlé (IFPRTY - European Rocketry Challenge), Jaime Martín Lozano and Andrej Mišejka (Hybrid Rocket Motor and Test Stand research project).

The "International Space Students" Workshop will offer student space societies all around the world the chance to get involved with the event and share their amazing projects with the International Space Student community and the companies who will attend the event!
