SpaceDot

SpaceDot is a non-profit, volunteering and interdisciplinary student team, supported by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh). The team was founded in December 2020 and consists of more than 50 students from AUTh and other universities across Greece and Europe. Our goal is to pave the way for innovative Space research. We strive to actively support making space more accessible for the broad scientific and academic community, as well as for the general public. To achieve this, we are defined by an open-access, open-source philosophy; all experimental results, code, schematics, and knowledge gained are available for anyone to use. We believe and invest in the potential of Greece to constitute an incubator for Space research. To this end, we pursue the advancement of Space Engineering in our country through the organization of educational activities and the expansion of relationships between the Academia and Industry, while aiding in establishing the first Space Institute in Thessaloniki.
