Description

This challenge allowed university students from across Europe to learn how ESA assesses technical and financial feasibility of space missions by designing a small satellite mission to the Moon in order to collect data on the micro-meteorite and radiation environment and detect the presence of water/ice on the Lunar South Pole in view of a future Moon base. I personally organised participation of this challenge on behalf of the University of Strathclyde, provided training sessions to students, acted as a systems engineer, site administrator and contributed to the propulsion subsystem team.
