Summary "Nanosatellites : Space and Ground Technologies, Operations and Economics comprehensively presents the latest research on the fast developing area of nano-satellites. It begins with a brief history of nano-satellites and introduces nano-satellite technologies, payloads for nano-satellite and explains how these are deployed into space. Part two provides an overview on ground segment and operations and part three focuses on the regulations, policies, economics and future trends. With contributions from global experts, Nano-Satellites: Space and Ground Technologies, Operations and Economics, is a comprehensive reference for researchers and practitioners working with nano-satellites in the aerospace industry"-- Provided by publisher.
