How can we prevent satellites from colliding? How can satellites be protected from meteorite impacts? How important are satellites in today’s age? How safe are astronauts on the ISS and why does their research help mankind in general? What happens with space debris distributed in orbit?
In the online course “Space Safety”, the astronaut Dr Thomas Reiter, experts from the European Space Agency (ESA) and other research institutions address the subject matter, presenting possible future scenarios for space applications. The individual course units cover an array of topics, such as space weather, space debris, collision avoidance, cyber security and space medicine.

Excellent course to learn about space safety and how organizations function on an international level. Material is a little outdated but definitely worthwhile to improve understanding about the space world.

The first portion where they focus on space is really interesting, but in the later sections the focus on German space organizations, and then there's a section on the politics of the EU which are both just super boring and irrelevant to people outside the EU and Germany.
Some good courses although all is not interresting. Main issue is that you will have ABSOLUTELY no support and advices / answers from the teaching team ! It's like they don't care about their course or students.
