Five contracts awarded to accelerate space technology – Electronics Weekly
Five UK organisations have been awarded a total of £300,000 from the UK Space Agency to speed up the development of innovative space technology. Recipients
Recipients include the University of Leeds, which will develop 3D printing methods and liquid-crystal technology, similar to that in our television screens at home, to develop far-infrared sensors for studying climate change and star formation.
Another project, led by Rocket Engineering in London, will create a compact propulsion system the size of a house brick for use in nano and small satellites. The engines use electromagnets to enable the satellites to move for in-orbit spacecraft servicing…
