Field tests were performed since 2008 up to 2011 at the Mars Desert Research Station (MDRS) in Utah. In two week rotations crews of six members came to the station to perform new missions and established the knowledge, conditions, systems, and equipment necessary to perform successful planetary exploration activities.

Foreword Space unifies, and a united international commu- nity will be essential if those targets are to be achieved. Lastly, Space provides us with unique tools, new cutting-edge technology and innovative solutions. All of this puts the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), with its unique mandate, at the centre of our joint problem-solving efforts, and 2015 can be seen as the first step in this direction. With the adoption of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS) to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the first United Nations Conference on the Exploration and Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, UNISPACE+50 The year 2015 was an eventful and crucial year for in Vienna in 2018, the spotlight is on UNOOSA the United Nations.

It’s not very big - just a box a metre wide with folded solar panels attached - and six strong men could lift it. It weighs less than 370 kilograms, compared with thousands of kilos for Ariane’s usual customers’satellites. So it should pose no problems as an auxiliary passenger. SMART stands for Small Missions for Advanced Research in Technology. They pave the way for the novel and ambitious science projects of the future, by testing the new technologies that will be needed. But a SMART project is also required to be cheap - about one- fifth of the cost of a major science mission for ESA - which is why SMART-1 has no launcher of its own.

  • Compilation of Bios and Abstracts
    10 TH UNITED NATIONS WORKSHOP ON SPACE LAW Contribution of Space Law and Policy to Space Governance and Space Security in the 21st Century COMPILATION OF BIOS AND ABSTRACTS 1 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Outer space is a fragile environment where the steps taken by one actor might have an impact on others, including users of space services on Earth. In that sense, the broader application of space operations and the increased strategic value of space has resulted in a growing need to enhance the safety of space operations, the security of the space environment and space assets, and the sustainability of outer space activities. Given the growing number of benefits derived from space science and technology applications, the conduct of space activities by States, intergovernmental and non-governmental entities as well as private sector continues to expand. In developing international and regional space cooperation States should assure that all actors conducting space activities comply with requirements of international space law. International and regional cooperation for the peaceful uses of outer space helps to bring the benefits of space technology applications to a wide circle of stake-holders, both governmental and non-governmental, and to intensify and diversify national space programmes. Policy and regulatory frameworks at the national, regional and international level are of paramount importance to provide the necessary basis for States, particularly developing countries, to meet development goals and addressing challenges to humanity and sustainable development. In this process, it is necessary to continue to strengthen the inter-linkages between international space law and the conduct of space activities.
