The workshop - with a duration of 3h30m - will give a thorough introduction to Mission Analysis and Design of Nanosatellite Missions with focus on learning by doing. The Nanosat Mission Concept can be used to provide hands-on experience to students and professionals about Small Satellite Missions allowing them to learn, interact, and practice with the different aspects of a cubesat. Also, the students will participate in the process of designing a Space Mission from scratch.
The Workshop will function as follows:
The students will receive insight into the primary inputs to the design of a Space Mission, as well as the specific aspects regarding Mission Analysis, with special emphasis on the processes and the Concept of Operations.
The students will learn about the most common Subsystems (such as TTC, Payload, OBC, EPS, ADCS) of Small Satellites. Students will be in contact with the Standards, Interfaces, Buses, and Protocols that are most common in Small Satellite missions.
The students will need to design and analyze a mission concept provided by the lecturer and identify requirements, constraints, as well as propose design solutions for their own Mission Concept identifying payload and subsystems to accomplish their Mission Objectives. Students will be put in a competitive environment, meaning that they will work collaboratively in teams to solve a challenge and compete for the best mission concept. They will need to be innovative, simple, and agile. Also, the students may be introduced to the KitSat platform and get their hands-on a CubeSat educational satellite.
