Mission Involvement

Our space heritage involves missions throughout the solar system. SSTC researchers have science team membership across NASA, JAXA, and ESA, and our engineers developed deep-space qualified hardware that is currently on the surface of Mars and Titan. We also analyse precious sample material from planets, moons, and asteroids using the world-class facilities at Curtin University.
