Aarhus University is getting its own space programme

The first Aarhus satellite AUSAT-1 will provide students and scientists with an opportunity for a new approach to research via satellites. The project is headed by Department of Physics and Astronomy, Department of Engineering, and Department of Geoscience.

The first Aarhus satellite will provide both students and scientists with an opportunity for a new approach to research via satellites in a new collaboration with the Danish space company GomSpace A/S. The project’s core mission is to study the way nanosatellites can be used to carry out scientific investigations. The satellite is called AUSAT-1, and it is funded by the Aarhus University Research Foundation.
