Overview
Participants of this course will design a space mission in an interdisciplinary group. The group will choose their own mission idea to conduct a feasibility study. Each participant is responsible for one aspect of the mission but must work intensely with all other participants for it to be successful. The goal is to prepare and present a full scenario and spacecraft configuration of the space mission. The supervising space engineers guide the participants through the process. They introduce the fundamentals of space technologies in live lectures and train the participants in tools to make the necessary calculations, simulations and trade-offs.
