Yesterday the Satellite Communication Systems Training Course officially began for 30 #university students! 🛰️💡✍🏻 🌏 Coming from different ESA Member States, these talented and enthusiastic students have gathered in ESEC-Galaxia, Belgium, to discover everything about #satellite communications and their vital role in the contemporary world. 📡 During the first day they already worked a lot: first they learnt about system engineering, #satcom systems, budget principles and high throughput systems thanks to experts from @EsaTelecoms, and then they started to put theory into practice with an exercise on payload design! Stay tuned for more updates in the coming days! ✨
