It is a new step in the exploration of the Moon. A future space station, smaller than the current ISS (International Space Station), will orbit the moon and occasionally host astronauts to allow scientific experiments different from those conducted on the ISS. The station, named Lunar Gateway, could later serve as a relay for manned

New dynamics: Europe looks towards Space
While the conquest of space continues to evolve, with an increasingly important role for private actors in the United States with Space X or the development of space tourism with the flight of Jeff Bezos in July 2021, Europe is also looking towards space. New infrastructures and technologies and even a new market: here is
Human-Machine Interface in the industry
A Human-Machine Interface, or HMI, is an interface that allows a man and a machine to interact for many uses. This interface allows to connect a Man with a system, a device, or a machine, in particular by the means of a screen for example. This new technology allows to widen the possible fields of
SATT and deeptech, the future of innovation
Deeptechs are young disruptive companies based on techniques considered highly innovative. Deeptech startups are differentiated from other companies by three major criteria: the proposed product brings high added value to its market, they exploit a disruptive technology characterized and protected by a patent, and they develop in close connection with research (engineering, patents, entrepreneurial researchers).
Virtual and Augmented Reality in the Industry
Virtual Reality is a technology that allows its users to simulate an environment that appears real while augmented reality represents a superposition of fictitious elements to a reality that still exists. These 2 technologies are perfectly in the era of time and the will to develop them does not cease growing as its possibilities are
