The conversation highlighted the significance of space in Europe's sovereignty, the methods employed to achieve it—such as programs like IRIS²—and the integral role space plays in our daily life, impacting innovation and competitiveness, that are crucial especially for smaller nations like The Netherlands.]]> https://spacewatch.global/2023/11/register-today-for-our-space-cafe-benelux-by-dr-heike-poignand/ Tue, 07 Nov 2023 17:00:01 +0000 https://spacewatch.global/?p=52164 This Space Café BeNeLux will feature Kees Buijsrogge, Director Space & Scientific Instrumentation at TNO in conversation with Dr Heike Poignand, Founder of C43B - Consulting for Business Building Blocks - and a friend of SpaceWatch.Global. During our Space Café BeNeLux Kees and Heike will not only discuss the relevance of Space for Europe's sovereignty, but also what an important role space plays our daily lives and what it means in terms of innovation, sustainability and competitiveness for a small country like The Netherlands.]]> https://spacewatch.global/2023/09/tno-joins-european-collaboration-for-space-internet/ Mon, 04 Sep 2023 06:00:14 +0000 https://spacewatch.global/?p=50837 TNO, the Institute of Communication and Computer Systems (ICCS), and a consortium of other European partners join forces in the LaiQa-project to develop space internet for cities and continents. Signal losses in fiber over distance are a major hindrance to the future of global quantum internet. Therefore, the project focuses on using satellites to connect cities and continents to eventually become a part of the global quantum internet and fully benefit from its promising applications.]]> https://spacewatch.global/2020/08/tno-delivers-optical-module-for-sentinel-5-space-mission/ Wed, 05 Aug 2020 05:00:00 +0000 https://spacewatch.global/?p=24729&preview=true&preview_id=24729 TNO becomes the first party to deliver an optical module to German Airbus Defence & Space which is assembling the Sentinel-5 satellite instrument. The aim of Sentinel-5 is to accurately monitor the composition of the Earth's atmosphere on a daily basis.]]>
