Abstract

An overview of the micro-nanotechnology field is presented with application toward future space systems. Specific discussions are presented on the insertion of MEMS, MOEMS and quantum effect nanoelectronic devices into both current and future space systems. Silicon satellites, based on batch-fabricated microengineered systems are also discussed.
