On July 10th, our researchers Camilla Colombo, Yeerang Lim, Mathilda Bolis, and Francesca Ottoboni had the opportunity to attend the first technical meeting for the ISTAR project at the Italian Space Surveillance and Tracking Operations Center (ISOC) in the military base of Pratica di Mare. This collaboration is the result of an agreement between Agenzia Spaziale Italiana and Politecnico di Milano for the scientific-technical support to Aeronautica Militare in the Space Surveillance and Tracking SST field, involving other research institutions as Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, Università degli Studi di Padova, and Institute of Information Science and Technology. The covered topics by our researchers encompass manoeuvre detection, long-term fragmentation reconstruction, and end-of-life disposal design for satellites in cislunar space. These initiatives represent the new frontier of modern space technology, aiming to create a safer and more sustainable space environment for all. Stay tuned as we advance our mission for a safer space environment!
