OHB Czechspace is taking on the difficult task of assembling the Comet Interceptor satellite's dust shield, which should protect the satellite from dangerous comet dust that could irreversibly damage it.
SmartBeam project is a new technology development proposed by OHB Czechspace funded by FIRST! which is an initiative of the ESA STS (Space Transportation) Future Launchers Preparatory Programme (FLPP). The objective of the work is to develop new affordable and reliable manufacturing method for Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) tube with integrated HMS (Health Monitoring System).
The seventh edition of the biggest space industry event in the Czech Republic will take a place from 4th to 10th November 2024 in Prague and Brno. Meet OHB Czechspace and find out more about our projects.
In order to make space safe and sustainable, the European Space Agency (ESA) accepted the Zero Debris approach by 2030. The goal is to significantly reduce the amount of debris in Lunar and Earth orbits by 2030 applicable for all programmes and missions in the future. OHB Czechspace works on the structural aspects of the design evolution and provides general systems engineering support.
On July 12th, launch day of the Czech Rocket Challenge will take a place at the airport in Medlanky, Brno. The competition is organized for high school and university students who design and build their own rockets. This Friday, more than 20 teams will launch their rockets. Meet us there!
So far, spacecrafts have only encountered and explored short-period comets. However, these comets have made multiple trips around the Sun, altering their original appearance. Consequently, ESA has chosen the Comet Interceptor mission to study a pristine comet. Such a comet, making its first approach to the inner Solar System, promises invaluable insights into its early stages.
Within the NEP RocketRoll project, we have successfully completed the third milestone, the main focus of which was to secure the NEP concept has preliminary architecture of the nuclear fission reactor, thermoelectric conversion cycle and other components.
Guided tours of space companies and an afternoon programme at the Brno Observatory. Don't miss the Brno Space Days on 5.-6. March. In the morning 5.3. we invite you to the OHB Czechspace Open Day.
