➀ A team from Würzburg University's Satellite Technology program won first place in ESA's "Computer In A Room Challenge," excelling in operating a simulated satellite with autonomous and resource-efficient solutions;

➁ The six-month competition required managing limited satellite resources (fuel, power, storage) while completing tasks like Earth mapping and emergency beacon detection, culminating in a 72-hour final phase with restricted communication windows;

➂ The winning solution demonstrated high flexibility and autonomy, earning the team a cybersecurity training course at ESA's European Space Operations Centre.

XCAM is advancing its work on a CubeSat imaging system for Craft Prospect, shifting from the SALIENT project to the OPS-SAT VOLT mission in LEO.

The Context Imager on the satellite utilizes imagery from XCAM’s NuSCIS system for real-time decision-making in satellite operations.

The mission is supported by the Centre for Earth Observation Instrumentation (CEOI) and marks the first flight of NuSCIS with a CMV4000 CMOS image sensor, opening up possibilities for similar applications.

➀ EnSilica has been awarded £10.38 million over three years from the UK Space Agency's C-LEO programme.

➁ The funding will support the development of a chip family for future satellite broadband user terminals.

➂ The terminals will connect with various satellite constellations and utilize advanced semiconductor technology.

➀ GalaxEye Space, a deep-tech space startup spun off from IIT-Madras, is hiring an RF Design Intern in Bengaluru.

➁ The intern will be responsible for designing RF PCB layouts, developing radar system architectures, and selecting components for the designed architecture.

➂ The role requires knowledge of microwave theory, EM wave propagation, and simulation software like ADS, HFSS, CST.
