1 The Swiss Space Industry The Fine Art of High Technology Dr. Umberto Somaini former President, Swiss Space Industries Group
2 Just a few years after the launch of Sputnik I the Swiss space industry emerged in the frame of Europ s first science spacecraft ESRO
3 From the beginnings Integrating the ESRO-2B spacecraft 1968 Testing the ESRO-1 spacecraft 1968
4 to modern Space Technology
5 Space Technology today
6 The European Space Agency ESA 17 Member States Budget: ~ M Swiss Contribution ~140 MCHF This map shows ESA's Member States and the logos of the national bodies responsible for space in these countries.
7 The European Community is committed to exploit the benefits of space by means of a dedicated European Space Policy Security (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security GMES) Environment (GMES, Earth Observation Satellites) Traffic (Satellite Navigation System Galileo) Economy (Telecommunication Satellites) Social Policy (Bridging the Digital Divide: Telecommunication Satellites) in co-operation with ESA with its competencies in the design and implementation of space missions.
8 The Evolution of the European Space Market Mio E Commercial Market: Launchers Telecom Satellites Meteo Satellites Institutional Market: ESA Programmes National Programmes Military Programmes institutionell kommerziell While the institutional space market (driven mainly by ESA) exhibits a fairly constant volume over time, the commercial market undergoes strong ups and downs as a function of the cyclical demand for launch services and telecommunication spacecraft. Data: Eurospace
9 Elements of the Swiss Space Policy Currently under revision! Switzerland focuses its space activities on ESA guarantees together with its European partners the independent access to space exploits the European space assets to implement the national sectorial policies fosters the competitivity of the Swiss space sector through the development of specific technological competencies supports the scientific exploration of the Universe
10 The Evolution of the Swiss Space Market The Swiss contribution to ESA and the consolidated turnover of the Swiss space industry MCHF Commercial Market: Launchers Telecom Satellites Meteo Satellites Institutional Market: ESA Programmes No National Programmes No Military Programmes institutionell kommerziell CH - Beitrag The Swiss contribution to ESA has been approximately constant in terms of real buying power over the years. Yet the turnover of the Swiss space industry shows a slight decrease in the institutional market and a growth in the commercial market. This corroborates its excellent competitivity on the commercial market, but also the increasing pressure exerted by large international companies on the institutional market. Data: SSIG, SSO
11 The Swiss Space Industry

13 The Swiss Space Industry offers some 600 attractive job opportunities to highly qualified engineers and technicians Apprenticeship 48% without formal education 2% ETH / UNI / FH 37% in a fascinating international environment. HS + additional education 13%
14 Examples of the Swiss Space Industry s Achievements in International Space Programmes
15 The Swiss Space Industry has contributed to all of the 11 currently active ESA science spacecraft
16 The Swiss Space Industry s Participation in Spacecraft Development (example: ESA s Rosetta comet mission) Subsystem Company Mechanical Ground Support Equipment APCO Technologies, Vevey Quality Insurance, structural parts High Gain Antenna (HGA) Major Assembly and Pointing System Power- and Pyro- Check-Out Equipment Independent SW-Verification and Engineering support HTS, Wallisellen Clemessy, Pratteln Captec, Biel Thermal engineering support Activity Solar Array Mechanism Reliability Engineering support and structural bracket SW Quality Insurance Electrical Ground Support Equipment Simulator Electronics Systems for HGA Pointing Mechanism Contraves Space AG, Zürich Contraves Space AG, Zürich Mecanex, Nyon RST AG, Berg TG Alcatel Space (neu SYDERAL), Gals ETEL, Môtiers

18 The Swiss Space Industry has developed atomic rubidium clocks for navigation satellites featuring a stability of 3 seconds in 1 million years
19 The Swiss Space Industry has developed a laser-based inter-satellite link system with a transmission rate in excess of 1 GBit / s over km
20 and Many Fascinating New Projects are ahead like for example The BepiColombo Laser Altimeter (BELA) for ESA s forthcoming mission to planet Mercury
21 The ESA Aurora Space Exploration Programme ExoMars aims at further characterising the biological environment on Mars in preparation for robotic missions and then human exploration.
22 The ESA Telecommunications Programme The Small Geostationary general-purpose telecommunication satellite platform
23 The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) Einstein's theory of general relativity, predicts that motions of mass produce propagating vibrations that travel through spacetime at the speed of light. LISA will sense vibrations of the fabric of spacetime itself.
24 The Swiss Space Industry s Participation in ESA s Launcher Programme Payload fairing The heavy lift launch vehicle Ariane 5 has acquired!! a 50% share in the global commercial launcher market
25 The Swiss Space Industry has developed and built the payload fairings for all generations of European Launch Vehicles as well as for the US launchers Titan III Commercial and the Atlas V-500 launcher
26 The Ariane 5 payload fairing separation test in the world s largest vacuum chamber of NASA in Ohio, USA
