A team of university students from University College Dublin is taking Ireland to space, for the very first time. The story begins in 2017, when the team was accepted to ESA's educational CubeSat programme, Fly Your Satellite! Over the course of six years, they have designed, built, and tested the satellite with the help of ESA experts and with access to ESA's state-of-the-art spacecraft testing facilities. As the team prepares for launch and operations, hear more about their journey to this historic moment.

In an era where planetary exploration increasingly relies on unmanned rovers, ensuring their safe and effective navigation across challenging extraterrestrial terrains is paramount. This is especially true in environments like Mars or the Moon, where surfaces are often covered with regolith-a fine, loose material that can significantly impair rover mobility.
