Seventh Annual Workshop on "Reducing the Cost of Space Operations"

The Seventh Annual Workshop on "Reducing the Cost of Space Operations", sponsored by the AIAA Space Operations and Support Technical Committee was held April 26-27, in Columbia, Maryland, at the Kossiakoff Center of Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory.

This year the workshop was held in conjunction with the Fourth International Symposium on "Reducing the Cost of Spacecraft Ground Systems and Operations". See the invitation.

As in past years, the emphasis was on small groups working to forward the level of understanding in several technical areas relevant to space operations. Brief plenary sessions at the start and end respectively introduced and summarized the work of each track. The technical tracks are as follows:

Track 1. Space operations best practices:
Track 2. The Application and Challenges of Inter-Satellite Communications for Satellite Constellations:
Track 3. Laser communications for space operations:
Track 4. Web-enabling space operations and support:
