Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

New Challenges for European Space Industrial Policy

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European space industry is globally competitive but faces challenges due to fragmented governance, reliance on commercial markets, and increased international competition. The European Union (EU) has become a major stakeholder in this sector, with a ‘fragmented institutional market’ shaped by policies, initiatives and programmes at ...

Computationally light attitude controls for resource limited nano-spacecraft [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Nano-spacecraft have emerged as practical alternatives to large conventional spacecraft for specific missions (e.g. as technology demonstrators) due to their low cost and short time to launch.

EU Space Law and Earth's Boundaries: Integrating Environmental Impact Assessment and Corporate Due Diligence

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union's proposed Space Law aims to establish a unified approach for sustainable space activities across the EU. While the EU's satellite constellations contribute to sustainability efforts, they can also have negative environmental impacts.

Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.

The EU Space Act's Global Reach: Legal Considerations on the Envisaged Application to Non‐EU Operators

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines what is known at this stage, before the envisaged publication of the legislative proposal by the European Commission in March/April 2025, about the European Union's Space Act, focusing on its potential application to non‐EU operators.

Orbiter-orbiter and orbiter-lander tracking using same-beam interferometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Two spacecraft orbiting Mars will subtend a small angle as viewed from Earth. This angle will usually be smaller than the beam width of a single radio antenna. Thus the two spacecraft may be tracked simultaneously by a single Earth-based antenna.
