From Nano to GEO • Low TRL horizon scanning; SSC, Harwell, AGI

– E.g. EP, microvib, Apps, Adhoc networks, Optical comms

• SSTL 12: NanoSat Engineering group – NanoLab • Encourage more 100Kg+ TDS missions

– Platform and Payload in orbit heritage

• Looking forward to UK low cost access to space • Harwell is key:

– Environmental Testing facility, Low TRL research, ESA interaction, Downstream applications exploitation

• But also utilise regional centres like Surrey – Research, Education, SSTL, Downstream Apps
