Very Low Earth Orbits (VLEO) – Development and Engagement of the Growing Community of Interest towards Sustainable Lower Altitude Operations
Time: 16:50 - 18:00 CEST
Room: Red Hall 2
Format: Workshop
Very low Earth orbit (VLEO) is an orbital regime of growing interest, particularly for Earth observation and communications applications. This workshop will explore the current state-of-the-art in enabling research and technology development for VLEO and will identify the key challenges to the realisation of sustained and commercially viable missions. Participants explore ongoing work in this area, share contributions and insights on the current challenges, and collaborate on pathways forward towards implementation and exploitation.
