In this episode Matthew and Cindy look at standards and space.
Matthew speaks to Alex Cacioni, Director of Flight Dynamics at Inmarsat, currently the UK’s biggest satellite operator. His job is to make sure that these satellites, and space debris too, do not crash into each other - protecting what’s known as the geostationary belt.
Alex is also a standards-maker, a journey he started in 2015, working on what he describes as space sustainability standards, including ISO 24113 for space debris mitigation. https://www.iso.org/standard/72383.html (iso.org/iso24113)
Plus, Matthew gets all misty-eyed and wistful about a 1970s classic sci-fi movie.
There’s also a Standards Desk of News, with details of an EU proposal about some technology that's very much closer to earth.
