Abstract

Panelists will be challenged to offer and defend their opinions on the efficacy of adopting standards at all levels within the design of small satellite systems—payload interfaces, bus subsystems and at the board-level within subsystems. Panelists will also be asked to comment on the concept of modular satellites that employ plug and play adaptability as a technique to enable lower cost and more rapidly fielded missions. Conference attendees are encouraged to submit topical questions which will be used to form panel questions.
