Adria Space Conference, 12-13-May 2022

WEB PAGE

The basic dilemma in the planning of conquering Space is whether it is a human endeavour, or we let the job be done by artificial intelligence, more precisely androids. In both cases without artificial intelligence the plan is bound to fail, whether it is building and partnership in space stations or habitats on the Moon or Mars. At the root of this dilemma there are many challenges to be tackled if humans are the passengers in Space, whereas for artificial intelligence they are not much more problematic than for ordinary machines. Adriatic Aerospace Association, together with its partners, is organising a meeting to review the challenges of developing artificial intelligence that would work in partnership with humans, or that would be sufficiently autonomous in decision making and curiosity driven as humans are.

The aim of the conference is to foster and strengthen regional cooperation in research and development of these activities. The conference profile is a two-day meeting with plenary lectures by eminent speakers. The state-of-the-art in the field and future developments are the focus of the meeting, whereby groups from regional countries will participate and share their knowhow. The invited lectures will be followed by a panel discussion on the issue of the role of artificial intelligence in Space.

IEEE lecture: Challenges in space technology and some practical aspects of building and managing spacecrafts

This lecture covers some very inetersting thoughts and experienced overview of ever interesting space technology challenges and corresponding practical aspects in solving it, presented by two distuinguished and experienced scientists, prof. Slobodan Danko Bosanac from Adriatic Aerospace Association (A3) and its colleague Zdenko Uvalić from Airbus.

The lecture is divided into two part where first talk will be devoted to space technology challenges with practiacal examples in efforts to make and launch first Croatian satellite Perun 1, and the second, experience-rich talk from mr. Uvalić on spacecrafts managing in general, i.e. spacecraft accommodation challenges with overview on the functional subsystems, environmental loading on spacecraft during flight and in orbit and qualification and verification philosophy of space components and systems. The concludal part of lecture will give an overview of cubesat Perun 1p – first Croatian satellite.
