During the visit, the importance of the SeRANIS small satellite mission was discussed in the following areas:
- Animal tracking
- Environmental monitoring
- Removal of space debris
- Start-up promotion by providing a unique technology testing platform
- Modern satellite structures
The versatility of this mission drives the development of eco-friendly technologies in space.
Anna Christmann emphasized how encouraging it is that the SeRANIS project provides young start-ups with the opportunity to advance their technologies and test them in space to demonstrate their capabilities. Transferring research findings into industry presents a unique opportunity for the technology hub of Germany.
