    Title

    Sustainable Approaches and Impact of Space Transportation Solutions on Earth + Space Environment and on General Safety

    type

    oral

    Description

    This session is dedicated to the study of the impact of space transportation solutions on the earth and space environment and on the relevant safety aspects. This session can address methodologies for life cycle analysis, environmental impact mitigation and assessment, sustainability, and eco-design for space transportation. It will also address new and emerging technologies for space transportation systems to mitigate the impact on the earth and space environments, yet guaranteeing Space and Ground Safety.
