Brief Historical Background
Slide 3
Activities in the field of spaceplanes and hypersonic flight, atmospheric and/or
suborbital, are mainly part and parcel of the space activities in general, sharing
as they do some technological challenges (SSTO, re-entry vehicles, TPS,
aerodynamics and aerothermodynamics, etc.).
Propulsion is also becoming a domain where solutions could be beneficial to
both, specifically outside the earth atmosphere in case of suborbital flights as
opposed to purely atmospheric hypersonic flights. Hybrid solutions appear to
be promising (t-jet/scram-jet/rocket).
Italy, in consideration of the huge investments involved, gives priority to EU
and international cooperation while pursuing some national initiatives.
According to most recent estimates, human resources in the Italian space
industry amount to some 6.000 units with revenues totaling 1.5 M€.
Recent and Current Activities
Slide 4
The USV (Unmanned Space Vehicles) programme, led by the Italian
Aerospace Research Center (CIRA), aimed to develop enabling
technologies for future space access and reentry systems and trans-
atmospheric winged vehicles. Two trans-supersonic flight tests achieved
using stratospheric balloon drop approach
IXV (Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle) programme by ESA, with Thales
Alenia Space-Italia as prime contractor. Launched by a VEGA rocket (AVIO
and EU partners) on February 11, 2015, IXV has been controlled by ALTEC,
with Leonardo (formerly Finmeccanica) covering the avionic system,
software and providing the appropriate environment for all functional
electrical tests. AEROSEKUR has been in charge of the floating system and
beacon for recovery
Both USV and IXV are technological demonstrators for aerodynamically
controlled re-entry vehicles, whose main purpose is the verification and
validation in flight of enabling technologies, among which TPS, GNC,
automatic descent and landing, all common to hypersonic vehicles
Main hypersonics related programmes
Slide 5
Italy is also playing a significant role in the affordable, reusable end-to-end
Integrated Space Transportation System Service (SPACE RIDER) to be
launched on Vega-C to provide Europe with an independent capability to
routinely access and return from low Earth orbit with a reusable system
able to transport payloads for an array of applications, orbit altitudes and
inclinations.
HYPLANE is a project conceived and led by TRANS-TECH, an Italian SME,
together with the University Federico II of Naples. It is a multipurpose 6-
seat business-like jet able to perform suborbital flight for space tourism,
technology experimentation, astronauts training and small payload launch
to orbit, as well as intercontinental hypersonic cruising flight (Rome to
New York in less than 2 hours), with horizontal take-off and landing
capability from conventional short-runway airports
SHARK (Sounding Hypersonic Atmospheric Re-entering Kapsule),
launched in 2010 by the sounding rocket MAXUS 8 (ESA) at the apogee of
700 km, allowed CIRA and CNR to acquire valuable data in the extra-
atmospheric phase as well as during the re-entry phase, reaching load
factors of 40g, temperatures of 1000° C and Mach 10 at 30 km. It is the
fastest flight ever in Italy
Main hypersonics related programmes (cont’d)
Slide 6
A number of Italian SMEs (Technosistemi, TSD Space, Marotta, Aerospace),
along with CIRA as well as other EU, Australian, Russian and Brazilian
partners, participate to the international programme HEXAFLY-INT
(High-speed Experimental FLY vehicles), co-financed by the EC and ESA.
An engineless vehicle, EFTV (Experimental Flight Test Vehicle), assembled
and tested in Italy, is planned to be launched from Alcantara (Brazil) in
2019. Verification and validation of high temperature materiel, GNC
algorithms, fluid dynamics simulation tools and aerodynamic configuration
for Mach 7-8 are the main purposes of the test.
The aim to develop TPS, both passive (through the use of high conductivity
composite ceramic fibers) and active (cooling fluids through porous
ceramic components), drives the THOR multinational project. Thales Alenia
Space-Italy is actively participating.
TELESPAZIO is leading the project MISTRAL within the Campania
Aerospace District (DAC) strategic plan. It is an air-launched microsatellite
with a tunable-opening deployable system enabling orbit decay control and
precise reentry.
ALI, a consortium of SMEs of DAC, is developing the deployable heat
shielded reentry capsule IRENE for ISS servicing in terms of small payload
return to Earth. Its Mars version is named SMS (Small Mars Satellite)
Main hypersonics related programmes (cont’d)
Slide 7
AEROSEKUR, an Italian PMI, has developed the inflatable re-entry capsule
SPEM (SPacecrew Emergency Module) for the Eneide mission (2005).
Although not tested in flight, it successfully passed a verification test in
the SCIROCCO plasma wind tunnel of CIRA.
AVIOSPACE participates to HYPMOCES (Hypersonic Morphing for a Cabin
Escape System), a research project whose main objective is to explore and
develop technologies to allow the use of morphing in emergency escape
from an hypersonic flight.
AVIOSPACE and LAER GROUP are implementing a project on Special
Materiel for Hypersonic Vehicles, financed by the Italian Ministry of
Defense, for the development of a high temperature resistant ceramic
panel obtained trough combination and sequence of assorted processes
involving, among others, Polymeric Impregnation and Pyrolysis, Chemical
Vapour Infiltration and Pressure Vapour Deposition.
SHS (Space Hot Structures) deals with advanced CMC materials and
coating development and testing in high enthalpy test facilities GHIBLI and
SCIROCCO.

Slide 9
ALTEC has completed a preliminary study on the possibility to have a
spaceport in Italy for future hypersonic transport. “Spacegate” has covered
all aspects related to such flights, from airspace management to ground
infrastructures.
CESMA, the Center for Military Studies on Aerospace, organized in 2014
and 2016 two International Symposia on Hypersonic Flights, covering
enabling technologies and programmes related to hypersonic flights at the
national, European and international level. Norms, regulations, economical
and financial as well environmental aspects have also been dealt with.
ENAC, the Italian Civil Aviation Authority, and the Italian Space Agency
have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with FAA aimed at the
definition of harmonized regulations to make possible to operate
suborbital space flights from the Italian territory, with the realization of at
least one spaceport.
Along the same lines, and in order to favor synergies, a Letter of Intent is
in place among ENAC, ASI and the Italian Air Force including a Working
Group on Suborbital Flights.

NAPOLI 2018 Restaurants
Naples has very many restaurants
and pizzerias. Wherever you go,
you can find a good one.
Near Piazza Plebiscito there is
Pizzeria Brandi where it is believed
that back in 1889 pizza Margherita
was invented in honor of the
Queens of Italy Margherita di
Savoia.

A more philological approach
established that pizza Margherita
was invented in Naples much
before and precisely around 1796.
Whatever the chosen congress
site will be, launches will be
served inside the congress area.

The Centre for Space Geodesy (CGS) is dedicated to
Professor Giuseppe ("Bepi") Colombo and is located
in the municipal district of Matera about 10 kilometres
east of the town, on the western boundary with the
'Murge'. Opened in 1983 thanks to the joined effort of
CNR's National Space Plan, Regione Basilicata and
NASA, the CGS is a structure 5000 m2 large where
about 100 people work up today. Its budget is about
10 millions per year.
Mainly devoted to earth observation through
advanced space techniques (space geodesy and
remote sensing), the CGS has recently been dealing
with other fields, in particular space robot technology
and interplanetary missions. It is one of the most
important research structures in southern Italy.
