Space for Everyone? Small Satellites - Changing the Economics of Space
Lectures
Public
For 50 years space has been a costly field of activity and considered the preserve of super-powers. The University of Surrey has pioneered modern ‘microsatellites’ which dramatically reduce the size, cost and manufacture times of small and highly capable satellites.

The lecture will chart the development and progress of these small satellites from early research vehicles through to fully operational constellations.
