The main purpose of this project is to develop an enhanced portable ground Control Station (GCS) equipped with an Advanced Stand-Alone Virtual Reality Head Mounted Display (ASVR-HMD). In the beginning, a Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) stand-alone Virtual Reality (VR) headset would be connected to the flight simulation tool. The VR HMD will be used to visualize basic […]

As transportation to space becomes more accessible, space debris pose increasing risk to operational satellites. Objects orbiting the earth can have a detrimental effect on space travel and threaten the spacecraft and its personnel. These objects can be anything from active and passive satellites, orbital debris, space junk, asteroids and fragments from their disintegration and […]

In the field of space operation and monitoring, there is an increasing need to build space situation awareness (SSA). That is, how well an operator can understand the position and operation of all space objects and satellites. It is critical to organize and present all the data in a proper way to support human understanding […]
