type

oral

Description

This session is devoted to emerging concepts ranging from very small power (micro and milli-watt power) to very large power systems toward future ambitious space missions and space utilizations such as future moon village. These include concepts and technology developments of space power system for the increasing spacecraft market by the nano-, micro- and mini spacecraft. This session is dedicated to power systems for such applications as well as for long-duration exploration probes and sensors.
