SCIence and TECHnology for Solar System exploration


Success through collaboration

We are pleased to announce a significant milestone in the collaborative efforts between SCITECHSS, SENER Aerospace, N7 Space, and Huld. Together, we have successfully integrated the Boot Software (BSW) and Application Software (ASW) components into the hardware Engineering Qualification Model (EQM) of the ENVISS instrument (for the Comet Interceptor mission). This achievement represents a key step forward in the realization of the ENVISS project and highlights the technical excellence and dedication of all partners involved.

A particular highlight of this milestone is the development of new functionalities by engineers from SCITECHSS and N7 Space, aimed at automating the testing of future models, including the flight models. These innovations are a direct result of the iterative engineering process that underpins the methodology of space projects, ensuring continuous improvement and enhanced performance in all stages of development.

Another noteworthy aspect of this achievement is the fully decentralized approach taken by the team. While SENER Aerospace served as the central hub in Barcelona, the rest of the partners worked seamlessly from their respective locations: SCITECHSS in Granada, N7 Space in Warsaw, and Huld in Espoo, Finland. This decentralized collaboration underscores the commitment and adaptability of all parties to overcome logistical challenges and achieve exceptional results in a distributed work environment.

This milestone is a testament to the synergy, professionalism, and innovation demonstrated by SCITECHSS, SENER Aerospace, N7 Space, and Huld. Together, we continue to pave the way for advancements in space technology, fostering new opportunities for collaboration and success in the space sector.

We extend our gratitude to all team members for their contributions to this achievement, which marks an essential step in the progression of the ENVISS instrument.
