GENSO call for proposals: European Operations Node

ESA's Education Office is currently looking for a body or consortium of bodies with the desire and capability to take on the role of European Operations Node for the Global Educational Network for Satellite Operations (GENSO).

GENSO aims to increase the return from educational space missions by forming a worldwide network of education and Radio Amateur ground stations and education spacecraft which can interact via standard software installed in the ground stations and associated spacecraft mission control centres.

This will fundamentally change the way that these missions are managed, dramatically increasing the level of communications access to operating educational spacecraft in orbit.
