Aquilex 2021

 As SEDS PERA, we always try to bring up something innovative and uncommon in order to keep our chapter active and to improve the knowledge of the members on space science. Of all of the parts of the world, the field of technology is most impacted by science fiction. Multiple fields including communication, transportation, and space travel are improved because of the fantastic ideas presented in the science fiction genre. Therefore, we decided to organize a competition “Aquilex 2021” in the field of fiction writing as an effort to admire and get back the attentiveness for this subject in Sri Lanka. Read more...

CubeSat & Ground Station Control Workshop 2020

The first-ever Pico Satellite and Ground Station Control workshop organized in Sri Lanka in order to introduce the satellite technology to Sri Lanka. Cube Satellites are being launched from around the world on various launch vehicles. One of the goals of the Cube Satellite program is to provide easy access to space for all Cube Satellite developers.

This workshop was successfully organized by SEDS Pera in collaboration with ORION Space Pvt. Ltd, Bhaktapur, Nepal. This was held over four days, under the supervision of two Engineers from ORION Space Agency on 7, 8, 9 and 10th of March 2020 at the University of Peradeniya for the students from all over the country who have an urge for this field. This workshop offered a technical session on launch opportunities and ground segment operations. By delivering new perspectives in microsatellite applications and several presentations dedicated to cube satellite missions. It might have surely helped for the envisioning of our future Satellite projects

So this had become a valuable opportunity for Sri Lanka to embrace an emerging technology happening at the very beginning of the New Year.
