Anotation:
The subject deals with technical means for the space research. In general part is explained space flight physics starting from the rocket launch through satellite movement during inertial flight in the Earth orbit, interplanetary space and landing. In the next lectures are addressed space environment specifics in particular vacuum and radiation environment. Space technology uses different techniques in the design, manufacture and verification of the space equipment. The requirements are determined in the European Space Standard system and lectures are dealing with the space project management in accordance with these rules. Finally the overview of the space activities in the ESA and other national space agencies is presented.
