February 2025 – The RAeS Toulouse lecture on » Disruptive Innovations in Space Technology » was presented by Jean-Francois Geneste, CEO WARPA (WORLD ADVANCE RESEARCH PROJECT AGENCY).

Elon Musk’s SpaceX and Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin companies have certainly changed the way the space industry has been funded and operated more economically, being awarded contracts by NASA for deliveries to the ISS/International Space Station going on to participate in the Artemis project taking astronauts to the moon.
What other innovations may appear in the complex space environment which plays such a fundamental part in the way we live our lives?
Jean-François Geneste will take us through some possibilities,as he is eminently qualified to reach into the future. His talk will showcase disruptive aerospace technologies such as the TeraDrone, Stratospheric platforms, Quantum radar and the X-Works impulse space propulsion concept.
