Intention Recognition for Space Non-Cooperative Targets Using Kolmogorov-Arnold Transformer Introduction As human activity in Earth’s orbit continues to grow, maintaining space safety and security has become increasingly complex. Thousands of satellites, defunct spacecraft, and debris objects now populate near-Earth space. Among them, non-cooperative space targets —objects that do not transmit intent, status, or control information—pose significant challenges for space situational awareness. Understanding not only where these objects are, but what they are likely to do next , is essential. This is where intention recognition plays a crucial role. Recent advances in artificial intelligence have introduced powerful tools for interpreting complex behaviors, and one of the most promising among them is the Kolmogorov-Arnold Transformer (KAT) . What Are Non-Cooperative Space Targets? Non-cooperative space targets include: Defunct or inactive satellites Space debris and fragmentati...

Goals and Trends in Space Exploration: Insights from COSPAR General Assembly 2024 Introduction The Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) General Assembly 2024 brought together leading scientists, engineers, policymakers, and representatives from space agencies worldwide to discuss the future of space science and exploration. One of the most anticipated segments of the assembly was the panel on exploration sessions , which focused on defining the key goals, emerging trends, and long-term visions for space exploration . This post provides an overview of the main discussions and takeaways from the panel, highlighting how international collaboration and technological innovation are shaping humanity’s journey beyond Earth. Key Goals of Space Exploration Discussed at COSPAR 2024 The panel emphasized that modern space exploration is driven by both scientific discovery and societal benefit . The primary goals highlighted include: Advancing planetary science to better understand the fo...

  Planetary Sustainability Science and Technology As humanity prepares for long-term space exploration, planetary sustainability is becoming essential. Scientists are now integrating Astro-soil , Astro-environmental engineering , and Astro-habitat engineering to create self-sustaining systems on the Moon, Mars, and other celestial bodies. Astro-soil research focuses on transforming extraterrestrial regolith into fertile ground for food production. Astro-environmental engineering develops closed-loop systems that recycle air, water, and waste. Meanwhile, Astro-habitat engineering designs durable, efficient living structures that support human survival in extreme environments. Together, these innovations pave the way for sustainable life beyond Earth and mark the next era of human space settlement.
