  • Background Interest in global health and international mission trips among medical student and resident trainees is growing rapidly. How these electives and international mission experiences affect future practice is still being elucidated. No study has identified if participation in international surgical missions during residency is a predictor of participation in international surgical missions in practice after training completion. Methods All trainees of our plastic surgery residency program from 1990 to 2011, during the implementation of optional annual international surgical missions, were surveyed to determine if the graduate had gone on a mission as a resident and as a plastic surgeon. Data were compared between graduates who participated in missions as residents and graduates who did not, from 1990 to 2011 and 1990 to 2007. Results Of Plastic Surgery graduates from 1990 to 2011 who participated in international missions as residents, 60% participated in missions when in practice, versus 5.9% of graduates participating in missions in practice but not residency (P<0.0001). When excluding last 5 years, graduates participating in international missions in practice after doing so as residents increases to 85.7%, versus 7.41% who participate in practice but not residency P<0.002. Conclusions Results reveal plastic surgeons who participate in international surgical missions as residents participate in international surgical missions in practice at higher rates than graduates who did not participate in missions during residency. International missions have significant intrinsic value both to trainee and international communities served, and this opportunity should be readily and easily accessible to all plastic surgery residents nationwide.

  • In Europe most Earth Observation (EO) data users rely on several EO missions, both to increase sustainability of their service and to widen the range of observation parameters. In addition to its own missions such as ERS 1 &2, ENVISAT and the Earth Explorers, ESA therefore offers access to the scientific and applications community to so-called 'Third Party Missions'. Third Party (TP) missions are complementing the observations of ESA missions, are used to prepare for future ESA missions including cross-calibration and create synergy to favor a wider use of EO data within ESA Member States.

  • 우주 행성 지반 탐사 미션은 1970년대에 활발하게 이루어졌으나 1990~2000년대에는 예산 문제로 쇠퇴기를 맞았다. 그러나 미래에 지구 자원 고갈에 대비하고 헬륨-3 및 희토류와 같이 우주에는 풍부하지만 지구에는 부족한 자원을 탐사하기 위해서는 우주 자원 탐사는 필수적이다. 또한, 우주 기술 발전은 미래 산업 발전의 원동력이 된다. 따라서 우주 자원 탐사 및 활용을 위해 최근 10년 동안 우주 행성 탐사를 위한 선진국 간의 기술 경쟁이 다시 가속화되고 있다. 이 우주 행성 자원 탐사/채굴 및 기지 건설 미션을 위해서는 지반 탐사가 필요하며 현재까지 달에 대한 탐사 미션으로는 Apollo 미션과 LUNA 미션, Chang'E 미션 등이 있고 해당 미션에서 유인 및 로버를 활용한 무인 시추 미션을 수행하였다. 화성 미션으로는 Viking, Spirit/Opportunity, Phoenix, Perseverance 미션, 소행성 탐사 미션은 하야 부사(Hyabusa) 미션이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 현재까지 수행된 우주 행성 광물 자원 탐사 기술에 대해 서술하고 향후 우리나라의 기술과제에 대하여 서술하였다.

  • Asteroids represent a significant resource for space exploration and scientific research. Various scientific missions have already performed and planned to investigate and understand the characteristics of asteroids. This talk introduces many space missions to asteroids. Representing missions to asteroids are the NASA's NEAR, Deep Space-1, Dawn, OSIRIS-Rex, SCOUT, DART, and ESA's Rosetta, and JAXA's Hayabusa 1 and 2, and DESTINY+ missions, and others. Although it is a very rare event, the possibility of Earth-crossing asteroids (ECAs) colliding with the Earth can never also be ignored. Numerous mitigation concepts also have been proposed to deflect ECAs in preparing for the disasters which might occur in future days. In the early studies for mitigation schemes, most of analyses were centered on to deflect ECAs with impacting the energy to the object to change its orbit. This talk also introduces many methods to deflect the orbit of ECAs, and shows spacecraft trajectories to asteroids.

  • In spite of a short history of only 30 years in space development, Korea has achieved outstanding space development capabilities, and became the $11^{th}$ member of the "Space Club" in 2013 by launching its own satellites with its own launch vehicle from a local space center. With the successful development and operation of more than 10 earth-orbiting satellites since 1999, Korea is now rapidly expanding its own aspirations to outer space exploration. Unlike earth-orbiting missions, planetary missions are more demanding of well-rounded technological capabilities, specifically trajectory design, analysis, and navigation. Because of the importance of relevant technologies, the Korean astronautical society devoted significant efforts to secure these basic technologies from the early 2000s. This paper revisits the numerous efforts conducted to date, specifically regarding flight dynamics and navigation technology, to prepare for future upcoming planetary missions in Korea. However, sustained efforts are still required to realize such challenging planetary missions, and efforts to date will significantly advance the relevant Korean technological capabilities.

  • The unknown excess emission in the near-infrared is thought to be related to the evolution of galaxies in the early epoch of Universe. Due to its extremely faint brightness, it can be observed only in space. Many infrared space missions have been tried to trace the origin of the Cosmic Infrared Background through the measurement of its absolute brightness and its spatial fluctuation. In addition, the infrared observations can address questions ranging from the origin of first galaxies in the Universe to the formation of stars. I will overview the Korean infrared space missions and introduce the status of the recent international collaboration mission, SPHEREx.

  • 전장에서의 무인기 활용이 시작된 이후 무인기는 기만, 정찰, 공격 등 다양한 임무에 투입되어 인간을 대신하여 성공적인 임무를 수행하여 왔다. 과거, 기술의 제한으로 자율적 임무수행이나 유인기와의 협업을 통한 임무는 불가하였으나 데이터 통신, 인공지능 등의 기술 발전으로 인하여 자율임무 수행은 물론 유무인 협업을 통한 시너지 효과를 창출하는 수준까지 발전하였다. 본 연구에서는 공군의 항공우주작전 중 공대공 임무를 중심으로 유무인 협업이 가능한 임무를 식별하였으며, 많은 공대공 임무 중 가장 핵심이면서 기본 작전으로 판단된 전투기소탕에 관한 유무인 협업 전술 개발을 연구하였다. 전투기소탕 작전 중에서도 유무인 협업을 통한 비스텔스기 대응과 스텔스기 대응 전술로 구분하여 연구를 진행하였으며, 이후 간단한 공학시뮬레이션을 통하여 제시한 전술의 실효성(임무 성공과 유무인기 생존 가능성)을 증명하였다.

  • The next generation small satellite-1 (NEXTSat-1) program has been kicked off in 2012, and it will be launched in 2016 for the science missions and the verification of space core technologies. The payloads for these science missions are the Instrument for the Study of Space Storms (ISSS) and NIR Imaging Spectrometer for Star formation history (NISS). The ISSS and the NISS have been developed by Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Korea Astronomy and Space science Institute (KASI) respectively. The ISSS detects plasma densities and particle fluxes of 10 MeV energy range near the Earth and the NISS uses spectrometer. In order to verify the spacecraft core technologies in the space, the total of 7 space core technologies (SCT) will be applied to the NEXTSat-1 for space verification and those are under development. Thus, the operation modes for the ISSS and the NISS for space science missions and 7 SCTs for technology missions are analyzed for the required operation time during the NEXTSat-1's mission life time of 2 years. In this paper, the operational concept of the NEXTSat-1's science missions as well as the verification of space core technologies are presented considering constraints of volume, mass, and power after launch.
