[COMET OPS] Interplanetary Mission Operations (ESA/ESOC)

Operations of Deep Space Missions: does this mean anything to you?

This presentation invites you to immerse yourself in this very particular and specific world where everything seems like an incredible achievement because of exceptional precision and know-how.

ESOC, which is assigned to operate this kind of missions, offers to explain to us why these operations are so special, the consequences induced on all the parts of the space system both on board and on the ground and to share some crispy experiences with us.

This presentation will captivate you for sure and you will have the opportunity to ask your questions to a "real" Deep Space operational actor, Christoph Steiger, currently MSR-ERO (Mars Sample Return - Earth Return Orbiter) Spacecraft Operations Manager at ESA/ESOC.

So feel free to join and to experience your first fly-by or swing-by…
