| Abstract |
ASTRA 2006 will build on the tradition of the previous ASTRA Workshops with additional expectations from newly approved ExoMars mission and scheduled launch of ERA. It will be a forum for exchange of information and discussion of the European space Automation and Robotics (A&R) community. Representatives from industry and research in the ESA member states shall obtain an up-to-date picture of currently envisaged space missions and application scenarios where A&R could play a major role; the A&R technology needs which can be derived from these application scenarios; the current status of European research and development programmes in the field of space A&R; new technology trends for space A&R. ASTRA will provide an overview of technologies, which are available or being developed in the ESA member states, or which should be included in future ESA-managed R&D activities. |
