Switzerland is currently revising its space policy and devising a national legal framework for space, recognizing international developments. The Swiss Space Office is seeking inputs to its innovation policy. The European Space Agency is making similar efforts, having established a Directorate for Commercialization and accompanying Center (ECSECO), and expanding their roles […]
A cornerstone of space sustainability is the ability to efficiently service, repair and refuel spacecrafts in orbit. From low earth orbit to geostationary orbits, the need for such In-Orbit Servicing (IOS) missions is clearly identified and several companies are trying to race each other to be the first to market. […]
The International Astronautical Congress is an excellent platform that brings us all together, united in the face of global challenges and ready to explore the untapped potential of the space for the benefit of the humanity. In 2023, the global space community will convene in Baku at the International Astronautical […]
In this talk, prof. Charbon will review the evolution of solid-state photon counting sensors from avalanche photodiodes (APDs) to silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) to single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs). The impact of these sensors on LiDAR has been remarkable, however, more innovations are to come with the continuous advance of integrated SPADs […]
