Grupo de Planetas y Cuerpos menores


Three are the research areas comprising the group "Planets and minor bodies of the Solar
System": Planets, minor bodies of the Solar System and Cosmic Dust Laboratory.
Broadly speaking, this group aims to provide us with an integrated view of the Solar System
making use of observational data obtained from ground and space. Moreover, several members
of the group are focused on the development of models of planetary and cometary atmospheres in
the Solar System.
Regarding the data obtained from space, it has to be noted that we are involved in 5 planetary
missions from the scientific point of view as well as from the technical point of view. All
technological challenges that we face are mostly devoted to electronics engineering, being
developed until now by members of the UDIT.
