In the realm of cutting-edge research laboratories, the adoption of nanosatellite platforms in LAAS stands out as a technological milestone, offering unparalleled opportunities for scientific exploration. These compact wonders, featuring advanced embedded systems, play a crucial role in pushing the boundaries of space technology, particularly within the framework of collaborative initiatives such as the NIMPH project alongside esteemed partners like the Centre National d'Études Spatiales (CNES).
Some scientific experiments are carried out under conditions of orbiting. LAAS / CNRS is developing a payload in a nanosatellite to study the behavior of optical fibers in space. In this context, I am responsible for the CNRS payload control software. The payload software controls all the experiments during the different phase of flight (day and night), the results are sent on earth to the ground segment. This space program is carried out with many partners, which requires significant coordination.
The payload is as follows:
