Two Best paper award finalists at SciTech

The Stanford University Space Rendezvous Laboratory is headed to the 2026 AIAA SciTech Forum and Exposition in Orlando, FL, for the first time in several years (January 12-16, 2026). Remarkably, we have two publications among the short-list of finalists for Best Paper Awards:

Takubo, Y., Dwvedi, A., Ramkumar, S., Pabon., L. A., Gammelli, D., Pavone, M., and D’Amico, S.;
Semantic Trajectory Generation for Goal-Oriented Spacecraft Rendezvous 
 

Low, S. Y. W., Bell, T., D'Amico, S.;
Flight-Ready Precise and Robust Carrier-Phase GNSS Navigation Software for Distributed Space Systems

They represent major progress in semantic trajectory generation for spacecraft proximity operations and precise onboard relative navigation for co-orbiting satellites. 
Do not miss their presentations:

Yuji Takubo:
Monday, Jan. 12, 2:00-2:20pm at Celebration 15 
Monday, Jan. 12, 5:20-5:35pm at Columbia 36

Samuel Low:
Wednesday, Jan. 14, 3:30-3:50pm, at Bayhill 28
