Learning Outcomes

The module imparts the fundamentals of space technology. It is important for students to have a general knowledge in several space related technical and programmatic subjects in space technology, but also in the utilization of space. Goal of the module is to produce skills in design of spacecraft subsytems, selection of system solutions for different areas in astronautics and identification of critical elements of a space mission. Another goal is for the students to gain competence in handling problems in any space related subject, beeing able to make trade-offs under use of small numerical programs, being able to think systemmatically in a professional environment and being able to evaluate space system solutions.

Content

- Engineering tools (e.g. MATLAB, CAD software) - Scientific documentation with Latex - History of spaceflight - Space utilization - Space environment - Orbital mechanics - Rocketry - Space propulsion - Launch vehicle - Re-entry - Space stations - Space debris - Earth satellites
