  • IAC contribution to SPICA and multiwavelength scientific exploitation
    In the last two decades, Spain has built up a strong infrared community which have successfully contributed, at Co-I level, to the construction and to the scientific exploitation of basically all European InfraRed (IR) space instruments. The IAC has contributed to the construction of infrared instruments for the space telescopes ISO (ISOPHOT-S) and

  • Near Earth Object Modelling and Payloads for Protection
    Multiple communities are now interested in NEOs for very different reasons ranging from science to planetary defence and commercial objectives (e.g., mining). Given the shared scientific and technological basis, all of these communities require knowledge and modelling capabilities of asteroid properties, as well as the capability to perform close

  • LT2/NRT New Robotic Telescope
    The NRT (New Robotic Telescope) is a project to design and build a 4-meter telescope within five years, which from the ORM will operate in a totally autonomous and robotic way. This form of operation will make it the largest robotic telescope in the world and, together with the exceptional conditions for astronomical observation of the ORM, in the

  • Scientific analysis of ultra-deep astronomical images
    One of the projects with the greatest impact currently being developed by the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias is the state-of-the-art analysis of optical astronomical images and, in particular, the study of objects with ultra-faint surface brightness. We have already made a number of scientific discoveries that have been made possible, not

  • TEIDESAT - TEchincal INvestigation and DEVelopment to SATellites
    Since its origin in December 2017, the TEIDESAT project was founded and is formed and led by a team of students, initially from the University of La Laguna and, later, also from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and other universities, whose objective is to develop its own space mission. In particular, the goal is to design, manufacture
