On this page you can find out more about CERESS team in general, the team members and our work distribution.
Team members
The team consists of four aerospace engineering students from the Technical University of Munich (TUM). The organization is divided into four different groups: Project Coordination, Mechanical Design, Electrical Design, Ground Segment and Scientific Design. Because of the small team size, the hierarchy is flat with strong interactions between all fields of activities.
