Exploring the solar system

Airbus Crisa’s participation in demanding missions to the Sun and Moon, to the planets and out into deep space are helping answer such fundamental questions as how were the Earth and other planets formed?Are there other forms of life in the solar system? What happened just after the Big Bang?

The space probes that are unraveling these mysteries rely on mission-critical equipment and systems from Airbus Crisa for power management, monitoring, flight control and data processing

Airbus Crisa: Investigating the universe

Investigating the universe

From mapping more than a billion stars in the Milky Way to capturing spectacular images of galaxies, Airbus Crisa-equipped space probes are providing new perspectives on the universe.

To accomplish these missions, spacecraft systems must operate in the most difficult environments, as they are subjected to conditions that include extreme temperatures and high levels of radiation.

Copernicus constellation satellites in orbit

Serving society

Earth-orbiting satellites are the silent sentinels that play an important role in everyone’s daily lives – with such duties as observing Earth’s increasingly fragile environment and predicting the weather, ensuring global telecommunications and broadcasting entertainment programming to fixed and mobile users.

As these satellites continue to evolve, Airbus Crisa is positioned to develop and produce the power systems that respond their mission needs in the most demanding operational needs.
