New PoliSpace Webinar: “Discovering tardigrades: small yet strong!” with Arianna Ricchiuti
Arianna Ricchiuti will discuss terrestrial organisms as models of alien life forms by analyzing some bacteria and animals called “tardigrades,” describing their characteristics and their ability to live in extreme environments such as Space.
New PoliSpace webinar: “Entering the Space Sector” with EVONA
Born when four passionate recruitment specialists teamed up to apply their skills to improve the long-term prospects of the space sector, EVONA represents over 30 years of combined recruiter experience and over 20 years of space sector recruitment knowledge.
BYE-BYE ISS: How it is going to be replaced
The International Space Station has been around for almost 25 years, but it is not going to last forever. Here the major candidates
Innovation calls, SunCubes answers!
SunCubes, an early-stage start-up, came up with a groundbreaking idea that could possibly revolutionize the space industry!
Another Great Achievement For 6S Team
Christmas has come early for the 6S team this year! The team received excellent news a few days before the holidays: ESA selected their mission for the “Fly Your Satellite! Design Booster” programme.
A first look into the design of the 6S mission
Which are the main design drivers for an educational project? How do you study the feasibility of a space mission? These are just some of the challenges that the team of 6S, PoliSpace’s first CubeSat mission, faced during Phase A of design.
The dream of going from Paris to Tokyo in just two hours? With FAST Team, it becomes a reality!
Travel the world in a couple of hours: FAST Team members tell us about their project and innovative TRINITY hypersonic engine.
FAST Project
The FAST team conceived and designed a futuristic engine able to take you from Paris to Tokyo in less than two hours!
The TRINITY engine provides unprecedented travel times, flexibility, and reusability being competitive in today’s economy. It also complies with today’s environmental standards thanks to the use of liquid hydrogen as fuel.
6S CubeSat Project
Designing a CubeSat has always been one of the main focus of the association. After creating a team of BSc PoliMi students, the project of the PoliS pace CubeSat started getting shape.
Thanks to a partnership with Sidereus Space Dynamics, the PoliSpace Cubesat will actually take flight towards real space in the early months of 2023.
Lexicon Project
Lexicon design aims to improve the filtering solutions already adopted in the Apollo mission by reducing the required maintenance and increasing the number of possible applications. The system is based on a closed-cycle, involving an inert fluid coupled with a cyclone filter to collect the dust produced inside a dome accommodating the ISRUmachine. The system’s scalability is allowed by 3D printing almost all the components and assembling them in-situ, thus avoiding the transportation of bulky materials.
Experimental Payload V0
The experimental payload EPv0 is a project of the italian company Sidereus Space Dynamics developed, designed and built with the contribution of PoliSpace. EPv0 aims to characterize through measurements the payload bay of Sidereus’ launcher EOS.
