Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Space exploration with innovative aerospace technology expands mankind’s understanding of the Earth and the universe and promotes the social and technological progress of human civilization. Our knowledge of planet Earth and outer space has given us an understanding of the requirements for planetary habitability and the resources supporting life and its sustainable development. On this basis, aerospace technology and space informatics are becoming strategic research foci for many nations. Space informatics is one of the most exciting and contemporary research topics in deep-space exploration, which requires substantial information sharing, exchange, and integration. Space informatics enables information to be shared that facilitates the development of many subsequent research areas, which ultimately boost the development and deployment of the latest related advanced technologies, such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence, robotics, deep learning, innovative machines, etc., in deep-space explorations. Considering the extremely high complexity, cost, and risk involved in spacecraft, advanced technologies in information modeling, computer simulation, optimisation, and decision support algorithms played a major role in enhancing the efficiencies, reliabilities, and safety of space missions. To contribute to future space missions, spacecraft development, and other space projects, this Special Issue proposes to collect excellent research and articles on the research and development of innovative technology for space projects based on space informatics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Aerospace is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
