    Title

    SMALL SATELLITE MISSIONS SYMPOSIUM

    Description

    This Symposium organized by the International Academy of Astronautics addresses Small Satellite programmes for Science & Technology, encompassing space science, earth observation, and lunar exploration missions; and focusing on results achieved, as well as plans for new missions. The Symposium also addresses five areas across the entire spectrum of small satellite missions – design and technology, cross- platform compatibility, planning for and executing cost-effective operations, affordable and reliable space access, and implementing small satellite programmes in developing countries.
