ESA ESTEC is pleased to announce the FINAL programme of the 5th edition of the SPCD 2024 Space Passive Component Days (SPCD) that will take place at ESA/ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands from 15th till 18th October 2024.
ESA ESTEC is pleased to announce that ESA SPCD final programme has been published.
Program Overview:
- On Tuesday 15th, an ESCC training course and a EEE passives seminar are scheduled, as a way to start warming up the engine.
- On Wednesday 16th, in addition to the oral presentations, the day will feature a poster session, private roadmaps presentations and the Technical Introduction of Components (TICs), ending the day with a Welcome Drink.
- Thursday 17th will not be less intense, with more oral presentations, additional TICs and an interactive panel discussion on “Advancing Space Exploration: The Role of AI Across the Entire EEE Life Cycle“. The day will end with the Gala Dinner.
- On Friday 18th, after the oral presentations, the closure and award ceremony will put the icing on the cake to the 5th SPCD edition!
