In this talk, we'll highlight how a commercial Julia-based simulator stack was used in Greek National Satellite Space Project (GNSSP) CubeSat space missions. The €200M program is implemented via the European Space Agency and includes Greek CubeSat In-Orbit Validation (IoV) missions. We'll show how Julia was used to accelerate development, identify design and implementation issues, and to help troubleshoot a satellite while in-orbit.
These space missions involve small satellites and constellations of satellites to be used by the state and commercial entities, and that also demonstrate the viability of various scientific payloads. We'll go over three specific examples, involving the Hellenic Space Dawn (HSD), ERMIS and DUTHSat-2 CubeSat space missions.
I've used Julia to make an in-orbit satellite go from spinning too fast to spinning less fast
