New Virtual Reality game – Save the Earth VR
We are in the year 2085, there is almost no human life left on the planet, our last chance …
We started a new development of a space Virtual Reality video game in which we will have a clear objective: “Save the Earth”. For this we will need to resort to different elements related to space, from the Galileo satellites, to Earth observation missions of the Copernicus Program such as the Sentinels, missions to protect and defend the planet against NEOs, even missions to explore the Solar System and observation of the Sun and other objects.

Cebreros Station (also known as DSA 2 or Deep Space Antenna 2) is a European Space Agency, ESTRACK radio antenna station for communication with spacecraft, located about 10 km east of Cebreros and 90 km from Madrid, Spain, operated by the European Space Operations Centre and INTA. A 35-metre diameter antenna that receives and transmit in X- and Ka-bands is located at the site. Station code is “CEB”. 20kW CW High Power Amplifier (HPA) it was created by Rheinmetall Italia SpA (Italy). The monitoring and control system was implemented by Microsis srl (Italy).

The Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission comprises a constellation of two polar-orbiting satellites placed in the same sun-synchronous orbit, phased at 180° to each other. It aims at monitoring variability in land surface conditions, and its wide swath width (290 km) and high revisit time (10 days at the equator with one satellite, and 5 days with 2 satellites under cloud-free conditions which results in 2-3 days at mid-latitudes) will support monitoring of Earth’s surface changes.

The NASA Perseverance rover will land on Mars in few days. After Curiosity this new six-wheeled Martian rover is tasked with prowling the crater, believed to have been the site that housed a Martian lake billions of years ago, to search for signs of life ancient microbial, collecting and storing Martian rocks and regoliths (broken rock and dust) and paving the way for human exploration of the Red Planet.

At SpaceRobotics.EU we love space, we love new technologies, and we love to share our knowledge and our passion for space sciences. That’s why we’ve created “Mission: Mars”, a VR environment that simulates Mars’ surface and features the latest missions sent by humanity to our neighbour planet.
Robotic Rosalind Franklin v3 – COVID online demostrator
The European Space Agency (ESA) will launch the robotic rover Rosalind Franklin towards Mars in 2022. As the exploration of Mars prepares for a rebirth, the European rover hones its equipment for the challenges that lie ahead.

About Sentinel 6/Jason-CS Earth observation mission
The mission is a constellation of two identical satellites that are launched sequentially. Each satellite carries a radar altimeter to provide high-precision and timely observations of the topography of the global ocean. (more…)
ESA DSN scaled model Antena 1:50
The 35-meter antennas of the European Space Agency located in Australia, Argentina and Spain, support missions such as Mars Express, Gaia, BepiColombo, Solar Orbiter, Rosetta and very soon the Rosalind Franklin rover from Mars, Juice, Euclid … , in addition to many other missions with NASA or JAXA (Japanese Space Agency).
