The Anatomy of a Space Mission: How All Partners Work Together for Success
Monday, 22 July 2024
While all of us use space every day, most people only think about rocket launches when it comes to space missions, which is a pity because there are so many other parts to a space mission, requiring a diverse range of skills to execute. Join us as we hear from a panel of experts as they discuss how all the segments of a space mission do what they do, so that everyone here on Earth can benefit from what can be done in space.
Organiser: The Adelaide Section of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics
