A suite of Australian designed and built meteorological satellites could help meet the future needs of the Bureau of Meteorology, a UNSW Canberra study has found.
UNSW Canberra Space has achieved a significant milestone in its latest satellite mission, M2, successfully separating a very large cubesat into two smaller spacecraft.
Twenty-one organisations from across Australia and the United States have found that a series of satellites fitted with hyperspectral sensors could become a key component in Australia’s space capabilities.
Analysis conducted at UNSW Canberra has demonstrated that a new space-based Earth observation system would be a valuable piece of infrastructure for monitoring and managing Australia’s inland and coastal waterbodies.
The knowledge of UNSW Canberra’s M2 mission continues to expand thanks to recent small-scale artificial intelligence experiments performed ‘at the edge’ in space.
As UNSW Canberra’s M2 mission spearheads Australia’s return to the global space sector, Spacecraft Project Lead Andrin Tomaschett shares his excitement ahead of a scheduled ‘controlled separation’ of the two satellites M2-A and M
UNSW Canberra Space has been buoyed by an announcement today from the Department of Defence, who will begin construction on a Space Division headquarters.
Dr Bright found her passion for space in the pages of Encyclopaedia Britannica volumes during her early primary school years, where she first read about the solar system and the lifecycle of stars.
UNSW Canberra Space’s M2 CubeSat satellites successfully launched with Rocket Lab’s ‘They Go Up So Fast’ mission from New Zealand earlier today, representing a significant step forward in Australia’s sovereign space capabilities.
A new study has demonstrated Australia’s space sector’s design, manufacture, launch and maintenance facilities can support a sovereign end-to-end Earth observation satellite and cross-calibration data program.
The satellite platform Lena Meyer holds in her hands is the culmination of two years’ work. Combining materials science and advanced manufacturing, this technology demonstration will inform future small satellite design and cubesat missions.
