Docking Impender. About project. - 0 views

  •  
    Docking Impender assumed a demonstrator of a novel kinetic energy absorber applied to CubeSat mockups tested on a 2D microgravity simulator: an air bearing table. Inspired by prof. Lagiewka: http://www.euroinfrastructure.eu/en/safety/byl-zderzak-lagiewki-bedzie-bariera-lagiewki/

Cubesat to run applications - 0 views

  •  
    the ArduSat (Arduino - satellite) will be the first open platform allowing the general public to design and run their own space-based applications, games and experiments, steer the onboard cameras to take pictures on-demand, and even broadcast personalized messages back to Earth.

    why are we not getting these type of startups in Europe .... btw: Will is british

    Nobody in Europe would invest 13Mio $ (or the equivalent in €) venture capital for this idea, it's just a different mentality. In Europe, VCs start to get interested when the investment risk is significantly lower.
  •  
    I agree, the mentality is different, it's hard to find VC funding for hardware stuff, even more so if you wanna shoot your HW into space. but there is movement, e.g. pioneers.io, they are in vienna and are actively trying to get more VC funding (in europe) for HW and other engineering startups
  •  
    thanks for the link ... just read this blog ... http://pioneers.io/blog/space-race-2-0-putting-satellites-into-the-hands-of-everyone a lot of selling talk but fundamentally I agree that they have a point ... and as ACT we will face the criticism in not so long that we have not managed (nor tried hard enough) to convince ESA about the need to embrace this "new space"

File-Sharing Group Mulls a Floating Pirate Ship of Servers in the Sky | Popular Science - 1 views

  • The problem: Where can servers that store data frequently seen as unsavory be kept? The solution: Hanging from a giant balloon in the sky?
  • this idea isn't totally practical, since the group has limited resources and an airborne server presents a whole host of problems
  • ther suggestions included a low-level satellite
  •  
    outcome of a brainstorming, or an example of thinking out of the box ... :)
  •  
    should we try to help them :-) ?
  •  
    we should propose fractionned servers with CubeSats ...
