Welcome to Large Space Structures
The company Large Space Structures (LSS) has been founded in order to focus effort on creation of large deployable space reflectors and other large space lightweight structures, as well as in-orbit mechanically reconfgurable reflectors. Having collected long term experience in working on deployables at different institutes of TUM and GTU, LSS creates a strong competitive base in this field. Working experience with the European Space Agency and European industrial partners in different projects is a valuable asset of the LSS staff.
We are developing large deployable reflector technology in cooperation with other European companies primarily for the European market needs.
We strongly believe we will turn the image above into an actual photo from orbit as seen below.
Successful European Reflector Technology Demonstration
On Nov. 15, 2016, LSS has sucessfully demonstrated a Large Deployable Reflector at ESTEC/ESA during the 37th Antenna Workshop on Large Deployable Antennas.
LSS has fully developed and built this demonstrator in the scope of the ESA project SCALABLE (prime contractor: HPS GmbH). ESA announced TRL 5.
