Talk

How can you develop a mission control center to support a mission involving 2 CubeSats? You don't develop it, you use YAMCS open source mission control software! At least that is what Libre Space Foundation did for its PHASMA mission and you should too.
In this talk i am gonna present how the LSF software team used YAMCS to create a working mission control center to send telecommands and...
