Scientific paper

Galileo Avionica realized the prototype of a highly compact and light APS based star tracker, providing accuracy comparable with those achievable with CCD star trackers. The developed sensor really does herald the beginning of a new age for Star Tracker sensors that will come to see them dominate the satellite AOCSs of the future. The FM version of Galileo Avionica AA-STR sensor will shortly have a flight opportunity on board ESA's PROBA2 spacecraft. This activity will lead to a full in- flight test campaign of a full FM sensor during 2006. Prototype test results are presented in this paper, while development status and in-flight qualification plan are also discussed. The Miniaturised Star Tracker hardware developed for Bepi Colombo is on display within the Symposium exhibition.
