About Aalto Satellites
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ฉ, led by ๐๐ซ๐จ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฌ๐จ๐ซ ๐๐๐๐ง ๐๐ซ๐๐ค๐ฌ at the Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering, School of Electrical Engineering, Aalto University, focuses on the design, development, and utilization of ๐ง๐๐ง๐จ๐ฌ๐๐ญ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐๐ฌ for various scientific and technological applications. The group has been a pioneer in nanosatellite development in Finland, having launched several satellites, including Finland's first scientific satellite, ๐๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐จ-1.
The research group's projects include the ๐ ๐จ๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐๐ข๐ฅ satellite missions of the ๐ ๐ข๐ง๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ก ๐๐๐ง๐ญ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐ ๐๐ฑ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ฉ๐๐๐, hosting two payloads: the Particle Telescope (PATE) from the University of Turku and the deorbiting plasma brake device from the Finnish Meteorological Institute. The spacecraft is designed and built by the group.
Additionally, the group participates in the ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ project, which aims to develop large deployable thin membrane antennas for small satellites, enhancing their communication capabilities to meet the demands of new space missions.
The group collaborates closely with international research institutions and industry partners, driving innovation and training future experts in space technology. Their work spans a broad spectrum of space technology areas, including satellite design, manufacturing, operations, and the development of new technologies for functioning in the space environment.
The work of the research group has also been instrumental in advancing Finland's space technology sector. Companies such as ๐๐๐๐๐ and ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ ๐๐ฉ๐๐๐, both leaders in Finnish space innovation, originated from this groupโshowcasing its impact on the industry and its role in nurturing cutting-edge space technology ventures.
