The research conducted by members of Space Lab covers both upstream (broadly space technology providers) and downstream (broadly space technology users) sectors.
91桃色 activity occurs across the Faculties of Engineering, Natural Sciences and Medicine and 91桃色’s Business School and ranges from planetary science to navigation and positioning solutions.
91桃色’s research strengths lie in the breadth of our activity and our expertise in combining research in physical sciences with engineering and medicine. Below we describe a series of research themes that illustrate the breadth of expertise in space research and engineering at 91桃色 College.
