Systems thinking ## Engineering We treat projects as connected systems: requirements, interfaces, risks, verification, and operations all matter. Hands-on practice ## Learning Members learn through prototypes, test campaigns, reviews, documentation, and iteration. Shared responsibility ## Community Teams pass knowledge forward so projects can survive beyond a single semester or generation. A student team with shared ownership ## Space Team Organization **Hamburg Space Team e. V. is a non-profit association registered in Hamburg.** While mission teams take care of engineering work, testing, operations, documentation, and project coordination, the association board keeps the organization running, supports mission leads, and coordinates partners. ![Simon Reininghaus](/images/team/2026/reininghaus-simon_hu_32762c6626e6f6ec.webp) ### Simon Reininghaus - BoardChairman ![Mika Schultes](/images/team/2026/schultes-mika_hu_df15eb366f1153ca.webp) ### Mika Schultes - BoardFinancier ![Aaron Bracht](/images/team/2026/bracht-aaron_hu_155ad1aafa49d9dc.webp) ### Aaron Bracht - BoardVice-Chairman Built through handover and continuity ## History The team grows by passing knowledge from one generation of students to the next. Hamburg Space Team began as a two student initiatives for practical aerospace work at the Hamburg University of Technology: the rocketry group HALO was started in 2023, and the satellite group THHOR emerged from the newly created CubeSatLab in 2024. In the fall of 2025, Hamburg Space Team e. V. was founded to bring our shared values together. Since then, members have turned ideas into mission concepts, prototypes, test campaigns, documentation, and increasingly ambitious systems. Each project leaves behind experience that helps the next team move faster. Location ## Based at TUHH Our home is at the Smart Sensors Group of the Hamburg University of Technology. The [Smart Sensors Group](https://www3.tuhh.de/e-exk3/) provides an academic environment close to space technology, electronics, sensing, and embedded systems. Being located at TUHH keeps the team connected to students, labs, researchers, and partners in Hamburg.

The mission subjects the hardware to the same shocks, cold starts and potential faults we expect in orbit, giving us a realistic playbook for future payloads. Building on the research of project [SatelLight](https://www3.tuhh.de/e-exk3/Research/SatelLight/), we are part of the [REXUS/BEXUS](https://rexusbexus.net/) Programme, participating in the REXUS 37/38 campaign and flying on REXUS 37. It pushes light-based communications through launch loads and microgravity, helping us map out how optical links behave when the stakes - and the vibrations - are high. ![Render of the BOLT payload for REXUS](/images/missions/bolt/rx-payload-render.png) Payload design ## LiFi experiments on the REXUS payload bus - **The Bus:** data collection and ground communications through our custom **B**ifröst **T**est**C**ontroller - **Experiment 1:** Space Disco examines the effects of atmospheric scattering and absorption on RGB-LiFi implementation - **Experiment 2:** Bouncy Castle tests the error resistance of LiFi against the temporary blockage of the optical path - **Experiment 3:** Floaty Boi implements a mostly isolated sensor, which studies the feasibility of combined power- and data transfer using LiFi. Overall, we hope that BOLT will stress test the LiFi research from the Smart Sensors Group in a near-space environment and help raise the technology’s Technology Readiness Level. Mission in Progress ## Timeline Milestones Summer 2026 ### Hardware Integration Prototype LiFi modules, power systems, and data handling boards assembled for full-stack bench testing. Fall 2026 ### Environmental Trials Vibration, thermal, and EMI tests gauge how the optical link survives launch stress and noisy avionics. Winter 2026 ### Campaign Rehearsals Ground-console procedures, uplink scripts, and data review pipelines drilled to match the REXUS timeline. Spring 2027 ### Flight & Debriefs Launch, recover, and analyze every packet to tune optical comms for the next-generation CubeSat missions. ## What is REXUS? Rocket Experiments for University Students The REXUS/BEXUS programme is realised under a bilateral Agency Agreement between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Swedish National Space Agency (SNSA).

Last Updated Last updated: June 2026 --- ## Eos Source: https://hamburgspace.de/missions/eos/ A student-built liquid bi-propellant rocket engine. Liquid rocketry ## The Mission Eos is Hamburg Space Team’s rocketry mission: a student-built sounding rocket powered by an SRAD liquid bi-propellant engine. The project brings propulsion, avionics, recovery, ground support equipment, and launch operations into one development campaign. ![](/images/missions/eos/eos-patch.svg) ## Our Goals The first target is to develop and test an engine that can produce around 2 kN of thrust for six seconds using nitrous oxide and ethanol as propellants. With a vehicle diameter of 11 cm and a planned length of about 2.3 m, Eos is designed as a supersonic technology demonstrator to build toward the European Rocketry Challenge. Key values ## Rocket spec sheet Propellants Nitrous Oxide & Ethanol Feed system Pressure fed Engine targets 2 kN Thrust & 6 s Burn time Planned apogee 5 km Vehicle size 11 cm diameter x 2.3 m length ![Vertical cutaway render of the Eos rocket](/images/missions/eos/rocket_section.png) Flight Vehicle ## The Eos rocket - **Recovery:** the dual-deploy parachute recovery system brings our rocket safely down from apogee. - **Avionics and flight firmware:** redundant onboard electronics and embedded firmware handle sensing, state estimation, telemetry, sequencing, and parachute deployment during flight. - **Tanks and pressurization system:** concentric tanks hold the oxidizer and fuel, pressure from nitrous vapor pressure and the inert pressurization system feed the propellants into the injectors. - **Valves and fluid control:** a nitrous-piloted main valve switches flow into the unlike-doublet impinging injectors, all integrated into one 3D-printed assembly - **Combustion chamber:** a phenolic ablative liner protects the chamber, and the graphite nozzle accelerates the exhaust to produce 2 kN of thrust - **Aerostructure:** carbon-composite fins stabilize the rocket, the glass-composite bodytube and nosecone protect the onboard systems from aerodynamic loads ![Render of the Eos test and launch tower concept](/images/missions/eos/tower.png) Ground systems ## Test stand, launch structure, and ground support equipment A liquid rocket is only as good as the ground systems that make testing repeatable and launch operations controlled. - **Test and launch structure:** the tower design supports horizontal integration and vertical operation, with a raised height of 10 m. - **Ground-side fluid system:** tanks, lines, valves, venting, and procedures prepare the vehicle for static fire and launch operations. Together with the avionics network and fluid handling equipment, the ground segment turns Eos into a complete rocketry program rather than a single engine project. Electrical and Software systems ## Control systems for remote operations - **Ground network:** mission control, the launch pad, cameras, and ground fluid systems are all connected over an ethernet network. Modular nodes can actuate valves, read sensors, and power all components with PoE. - **Remote control software:** operators monitor sensors and cameras, move valves, and run procedures from a safe distance. Mission control and the launch pad are up to 750 m apart! - **Operations discipline:** checklists, telemetry, abort logic, and rehearsals turn high-energy hardware into a controlled test campaign. Mission in progress ## Development milestones Fall 2025 ### Development Start The team began Eos with concepts for the engine & ground architecture, and the first test campaign requirements. Spring 2026 ### Engine Design Engine and test stand design continued until June, focusing on the propulsion and ground systems. Summer 2026 ### Manufacturing & Flight Vehicle Design Manufacturing of the propulsion systems, and design of the recovery system, avionics, and aerostructure. Fall 2026 ### Static Fire Campaign The next major target is a static fire of the engine, supported by ground-side fluid systems, remote operations, and sensor-rich test procedures. Spring 2027 ### Supersonic Demonstrator After engine and flight subsystem testing, Eos aims to fly faster than sound and prove that propulsion, avionics, recovery, and operations all work as intended. Fall 2027 ### European Rocketry Challenge The long-term goal is to compete at EuRoC 2027 in Portugal, bringing a fully integrated student rocket to a European launch campaign. Departments as parts of one rocket ## Subsystems ### Structures Launch tower, airframe, interface mechanisms: This subsystem does metal and composite structures for the rocket and on the ground. ### Electrical Avionics hardware, sensors & actuators, power distribution, telemetry radio & networks, and ground support electronics for reliable testing and flight. ### Software Embedded firmware for the flight and ground systems, operations control interfaces, data handling, and network software. ### Recovery Parachutes, lines, and deployment mechanisms that bring the rocket safely back after flight. ### Propulsion Tanks, injectors, valves, combustion chamber, feed system, and test campaigns for the liquid rocket engine. ### GSE Ground Support Equipment is responsible for ground side fluid handling: propellant supply, fill, abort, and safety. Work with us ## Meet the Team Eos is built by students learning liquid propulsion, structures, avionics, software, testing, and launch operations by doing the real work together.

Particle Detection Units from CAU Kiel! Last week, our team visited the Department for Extraterrestrial Physics at the Institute for Experimental and Applied Physics at Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel. The visit marks an important step in our ongoing CubeSat mission, as we are collaborating with the CAU team on the integration of a heavy particle detector. The instrument, named GRETEL, is based on a BGO (bismuth germanate) scintillation crystal and is designed to detect high-energy particles in space. GRETEL will complement our in-house HANS payload, expanding the scientific capabilities of the mission and enabling more comprehensive measurements of the space radiation environment. What makes this collaboration particularly exciting is CAU’s extensive heritage in particle detector development. Their instruments have been successfully deployed across a wide range of missions. From atmospheric research on BEXUS campaigns to deep-space applications. Notable missions include the lunar surface via Chang’e 4, ESA’s Solar Orbiter, and planetary exploration with the Curiosity rover on Mars. By combining this proven flight heritage with the agile, student-driven “New Space” approach of Hamburg Space Team, we aim to create a mission that is both technically robust and highly innovative. We are looking forward to the coming months of development, testing and ultimately, to launching our CubeSat and bringing this collaboration into orbit. --- ## HANS Source: https://hamburgspace.de/missions/hans/ Hamburg Automated Northern lights Survey ## The Mission This project is realized with and by the [CubeSat Lab at Smart Sensors Group](https://www3.tuhh.de/e-exk3/cubesat/). HANS is the autonomous aurora hunter flying on our first CubeSat. It captures northern lights imagery, judges each frame onboard, and prioritizes the data that matters most for downlink. Our aurora payload uses a wide-field camera paired with onboard processing to decide when conditions match science criteria and which images deserve precious downlink time. By filtering and ranking data in orbit, HANS squeezes maximum value out of every watt and byte. We are also collaborating with the [Department for Extraterrestial Physics](https://www.physik.uni-kiel.de/en/institutes/departments/extraterrestrial-physics) at Kiel University, which is developing GRETEL (Galactic Radiation high-Energy Telescope), a heavy-ion Bismuth Germanate scintillator. The Kiel team has a long heritage of building similar detectors for missions to the Sun, Moon, and Mars. Together, HANS and GRETEL showcase space engineering from Northern Germany. ## Mission milestones ### Design & Prototyping Currently electrical, mechnical and software systems are under Development with first protoypes in sight. ### Onboard Intelligence Our firmware will integrate image scoring for prioritized storage and transmission, as well as health monitoring hooks that keep the payload responsive in orbit. ### CubeSat Integration We will integrate our sub systems in our CubeSat structure. After in-house testing the finished satellite will be shipped off to externally mandatet tests ### Launch & Operations After integrating with our launch provider, HANS will be send to orbit, where it will deploy and communicate with our Ground Station.
