Dr. J. Scott Bolton, Juno’s lead researcher and Assistant Vice-President at the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) of Space Science, Division of Engineering in San Antonio, Texas, and Rick Nybakken , Project Manager for the Juno mission at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), gave a presentation last Thursday to a room full of attendees at Isdefe detailing the "Juno" space mission to the planet Jupiter.

On Thursday, February 11th experts from the "Juno" space mission to the planet Jupiter will explain the details of the project and the objectives of a study to understand the origin of our solar system, the formation of giant planets, and their evolution. The talks, to be held in Isdefe’s auditorium at 6:00 pm, will feature participation by two of its most important participants: Dr. Scott J. Bolton, Lead Researcher, and Rick Nybakken, Director of the "Juno" project.

Isdefe will participate in the CivilDRON Conference 2016, an event that will bring together companies and institutions involved in every area of technology solutions, from design engineering and manufacturing to the development and use of unmanned aircraft, or drones.

Carlos Regidor, Head of the Quality and Transport Testing Department, will present the goals and results of the DEMORPAS Project, a demonstration of the viability of integrating Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) into the general air traffic management system.

Isdefe has successfully participated in the execution of the two exercises in the context of DEMORPAS Project, where the feasibility of integrating remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) in the general air traffic management system has been shown.

Isdefe will participate in CIBERSEG 2016, the title of the Universidad de Alcalá’s 3rd Conference on Security and Cyberdefence. A series of talks has been scheduled on topics of interest in this area, where Oscar Pastor, Isdefe’s Security Manager, will take speak on "Los ciberejercicios como herramienta de protección y sensibilización ante las ciberamenazas" (Cyberexercises as a protection and awareness-raising tool in the face of cyberthreats).

The "Internal R&D" initiative has been a formula for successfully demonstrating the entrepreneurial skills of Isdefe employees. This is the first internal call to propose projects aimed at innovation, research and development to improve the quality of the services provided by Isdefe as in-house technical services provider of the Spanish government.
