UCAnFly

UCAnFly is an educational project created by students from the University of Cádiz. The main scientific aim is to explore the feasibility of novel magnetic measurement systems for space missions requiring tiny sensors and long-integration time, such as space-borne gravitational wave detectors mainly based on laser interferometry, but also in cold-atom precision interferometry. The main motivation is to complement academic education at the University of Cádiz and to transfer knowledge to students in the field of advanced instrumentation and data analysis for Space Sciences. UCAnFly has the support of the Education Office of the European Space Agency, under the educational Fly Your Satellite! programme.
