Scope:The final objective of this call is to prepare the next phases of the implementation of a Quantum Space Gravimetry pathfinder mission. To achieve this objective, one proposal for a phase B study, as specified in ECSS‐M‐ST‐10C, leading to a preliminary definition of a quantum space gravimetry pathfinder mission, will be selected. This activity will cover both the quantum space gravimetry payload and satellite platform. This activity will also include the implementation measures that will enhance the technological readiness of the critical components leading to TRL 6/7 at the end of the project. The proposals will detail the reviews organised under the study. These reviews, organised by the consortium, will be open to COM and ESA experts. The Phase B will conclude with a Preliminary Design Review.

Quantum Space Gravimetry Pathfinder Mission Statement:

The goals of the quantum space gravimetry (QSG) pathfinder mission are:

to consolidate the leadership of the European Union know-how in Quantum Sensing for Space andto demonstrate key technologies, their viability and related performances. Necessary for the later deployment of a full QSG mission (e.g. BEC technology, rotation compensation, etc.), and pave the way to future space-based applications and services enabled by its data.

The focus of the QSG pathfinder mission shall be on the operation of a complete quantum accelerometer system and the detailed characterization of its performance in space. The results of the pathfinder mission, demonstrating the European Union capabilities and validating the technology, shall enable the development of ultra-sensitive sensors for an ambitious post-pathfinder QSG mission in the next step.

The QSG pathfinder mission shall be launched within this decade, paving the way for the deployment of an EU QSG mission within the next decade. The technology developed shall foster the EU non-dependence and leadership in this domain.

In this topic the integration of the gender dimension (sex and gender analysis) in research and innovation content is not a mandatory requirement.


Specific Topic Conditions:Activities are expected to achieve TRL 6-7 by the end of the project – The reference TRL definition is the ISO 16290:2013 applicable to the space sector.
