Re: [Orekit Developers] SOCIS 2017



Evan,

I note that PPT2 is included in Linux GTDS so we could generate test cases.

regards,

Paul

Hi Luc,

I added one idea for adding PPT2 (OLES) theory to Orekit. Do I need
special permissions to upload the the Documents section of the forge?
I can't seem to figure out how up upload the references for the
project.

Best Regards,
Evan

Hi all,

ESA will support another SOCIS project (Summer Of Code In Space)
this
year. This project funds students to work during the summer holidays
on open source projects related to space.

As usual, the Orekit project proposes a few study subject for
students
who want to apply. Our current ideas can be found here:

<https://www.orekit.org/forge/projects/orekit/wiki/SOCIS [1]>

We have put again some topics already proposed previous years but
not addressed, plus one subject on L2 point trajectories.

If you want to add other subjects, please feel free to write
something
and we will add it to the list.

If you know a student who may be interested in working for this,
forward
them the link to the student registration form here:

Plase be aware that some legal conditions apply for students.

1) they must be a student in engineering or science - a field that
is
actually related to the skills requested to perform the work.
2) they must live in an ESA member state that is eligible to ESA TRP
programme

So basically a student studying in a North America university cannot
apply (even if the student is a European citizen), whereas a student
studying in most European countries can apply (even if the student
is
not a European citizen).

best regards,
Luc
