AI cybersecurity - challenges in space
... and complexity, and residual risks always remain. Communication with space assets, particularly those in geostationary orbit (GEO) or deep space, is subject to significant signal propagation delays (latency) and constrained data transmission rates...

Robotics is the future of space labour
... latency to mere tens of milliseconds. Historically, an RF signal would be transmitted from the ground to the faraway geostationary orbit (GEO) and back to LEO. Meanwhile, for the first time, we see the robustness of robot learning or ‘embodied...

Space junk collision highlights need for intervention
...larger than 5-10 cm in low Earth orbit (LEO) and 30 cm to 1 m in geostationary orbit (GEO) - as well as several thousands to millions of non-trackable debris particles in orbit around the Earth. “These in-orbit collisions and explosions highlight the...

A multifaceted approach to space sustainability
... other factors such as post-mission disposal. This has only been a consideration in geostationary orbit (GEO), where both the frequencies and the use of orbital positions are regulated by the ITU. But now, when radio regulators licence a system...

Space sustainability and the role of space situational awareness
... risks. Space situational awareness supports the long-term viability of congested orbits, particularly in low Earth orbit (LEO) and geostationary orbit (GEO) while promoting collective responsibility for the space environment and driving investment...
