GENESIS mission job offers to work at the Royal Observatory of Belgium


Dear Colleagues,

We are looking for four enthusiastic and motivated scientists to work
with us on the GENESIS mission simulations and for the development of
the VLBI transmitter instrument.

GENESIS will be launched in 2027. It is the first-ever satellite with
all four space-based geodetic techniques on-board, namely Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), Very
Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) and Doppler Orbitography and
Radio-positioning Integrated by Satellite (DORIS). The main mission
objective is to improve the international terrestrial coordinate frame
(International Terrestrial Reference Frame, ITRF). Furthermore, the
GENESIS mission will allow to improve the International Celestial
Reference Frame (ICRF), and there with the link between the two frames,
and thus the Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP).

Please find the job offers at this link:
