Antenova's tiny GNSS module with integrated antenna, high precision and low power
Saturday, 11 March 2023 22:19
Antenova Ltd, the UK-based manufacturer of antennas and RF antenna modules for M2M and the IoT, is to reveal its latest compact high precision GNSS module at Embedded World. The new product, GNSSNova M20072, is a GNSS receiver with integrated GNSS antenna and greatly reduced power consumption.
M20072 uses a MediaTek 12nm low energy chip with 1.8V power supply which uses 70% less power than China's space technology institute sees launches of 400 spacecraft
Saturday, 11 March 2023 22:19
The China Academy of Space Technology has developed and successfully launched a total of 400 spacecraft with its Tianhui 6 twin satellites sent into space on Friday morning.
The two satellites were launched onboard a Long March 4C carrier rocket and will be used for geographic mapping, land resource survey, and scientific experiments, among others.

"We are living in an extraordinary moment in history," says Didier Queloz, who directs ETH Zurich's Centre for Origin and Prevalence of Life and the Leverhulme Centre for Life in the Universe at Cambridge. While still a doctoral student Queloz was the first to discover an exoplanet - a planet orbiting a solar-type star outside of Earth's solar system.

World's first 3D printed rocket set for inaugural flight
Saturday, 11 March 2023 07:25
The world's first 3D printed rocket is scheduled to blast off from Florida on Saturday on the maiden flight of an innovative spacecraft billed as being less costly to produce and fly.
Liftoff of the rocket, Terran 1, had been scheduled for Wednesday at Cape Canaveral but was postponed at the last minute because of propellant temperature issues.
The new launch window for the rocket built by California aerospace startup Relativity Space to put satellites into orbit is from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm (1800 GMT to 2100 GMT) on Saturday.
Terran 1 is set to reach low Earth orbit eight minutes after blastoff on a voyage intended to gather data and demonstrate that it can withstand the rigors of liftoff and space flight.

Galileo: no way without time
Friday, 10 March 2023 12:55
Europe’s Galileo is the world’s most precise satellite navigation system, providing metre-level accuracy and very precise timing to its four billion users. An essential ingredient to ensure this stays the case are the atomic clocks aboard each satellite, delivering pinpoint timekeeping that is maintained to a few billionths of a second. These clocks are called atomic because their ‘ticks’ come from ultra-rapid, ultra-stable oscillation of atoms between different energy states. Sustaining this performance demands, in turn, even more accurate clocks down on the ground to keep the satellites synchronised and ensure stability of time and positioning for
