Do you want to participate in a Space Mission which has not been yet done in the history of humankind? Are you passionate about Space and other complex technologies? At Huld you can be cooler than Bruce Willis in Armageddon so instead of flying to the asteroid on your own, you could just send your intelligent on-board software programmed at our Prague or Pilsen office.
As part of HERA/APEX project, you can join an international effort to test and observe asteroid deflection with a kinetic impactor and significantly improve our current understanding of asteroids (composition, magnetic field presence, etc.). The mission needs to find a way through several obstacles, while targeting a binary asteroid (asteroid orbiting around another asteroid). As a deep space mission, it presents a complex set-up to be achieved since remote monitoring from the Earth cannot provide enough information. Dear Jedi, this potentially will be used one day to save human lives or humankind as we know it.
Are you already thrilled? Buckle up your seat belt because this is only the beginning!
The HERA project is composed of full-size satellite (mother-craft, also named HERA) and two CubeSats to be deployed in close distance of the asteroid (APEX and Juventas). Our team is working on HERA satellite and APEX CubeSat.
As HW is developed in parallel with SW, you need to be able to test and validate the product without the complete environment in place. You need to develop Software Validation Facility, a simulator consisting mostly of SW running on a workstation and partly also of connected development boards.
