The European Space Agency (ESA) and the University of Life Sciences in Wrocław (UPWr) have signed an agreement allowing to create a new ESA laboratory in Poland. It will be a place for the development of navigation systems, technology transfer and exchange for young scientists who want to develop in the field of space and satellite research.
The new laboratory will specialize in the development of Global Navigation Satellite Systems for the purposes of precise positioning and navigation, determination of orbits of low and medium satellites, time transfer, research of the Earth’s atmosphere, including the troposphere and ionosphere, i.e. space weather, the rotation of the Earth, and geodynamic processes.
The laboratory will also organize training courses, seminars, technology transfer and exchanges for young scientists, doctoral students and students who want to develop in space and satellite research.
