Exploration/Human Spaceflight -
Future Visions for
Space Science, Robotics and Human Spaceflight |
Plenary topics:
The operational challenges for the next decade of ISS operations: maintenance after the shuttle retirement, transportation after the shuttle retirement optimizing operations and reducing costs;
Visions to the end of our solar system: what has been achieved so far, what are the future plans of the different partners the “big science” projects (solar, planetary, astronomy);
Robotics as a “stepping stone” for exploration |

Earth Observation Plenary
Changing Paradigms in Earth Observations |
Plenary topics:
New players and new concepts in earth observation are entering a technical domain so far managed by large space agencies. Public demand and internet based access mechanisms are also driving mission operations and data distribution concepts. The plenary will highlight key developments in this domain, comparing these with heritage approaches. |

Communication/Navigation - Information Assurance
for commercial, civil and military satellite operators |
Plenary topics:
There is a clear trend in increased focus on information assurance among all satellite operators, although the reasons for their focus may vary. Commercial and civil earth observation satellite operators worry about their urgent near-real-time data coming back to the users in time - and that all users are legitimate. Navigation satellite operators, as well as communication satellite operators, worry about interference that might disturb the quality of the signal from their satellites. Military operators are worried about received data and data about their satellites end up in the wrong hands, and about communication links being a way into their facility for hackers.
