SPINOFFS FROM SPACE EXPLORATION A presentation by Ayodele Faiyetole of ARCSSTEE, OAU-Campus, Ile-Ife At the 2nd National Workshop of IHY-Nigeria, held at Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijebu-Ode, Nigeria

Down 2 Earth: 

Down 2 Earth Space Technology “Spin-off” is a return on the enormous investment in space research which has been found useful to us here on Earth. These Spin-offs have touched every facet of our life: Energy, Health, Safety, Telecommunication, Lifestyle etc. As a result of our continuous research in Space Technology, the Future seems brighter, and we expect to live better life.

Keeping an Eye on Earth: 

Keeping an Eye on Earth Keeping an eye on the ways land is used here on Earth is an important concern for the government. Doing this on the ground is time consuming and expensive. It is conveniently done from Space by employing Earth-Observation technology to assess how land is used. We also use it to monitor climate change using different analysis software.

Coping with cruel nature: 

Coping with cruel nature One of the key features of technology developed for space is that it is often well suited to cope with the most inhospitable conditions on Earth. Space environment is extremely cold and uninviting place. Space-based technologies such as Man Machine Interface (MMI), ground penetrating radar, loss-less data, image compression and space robotics etc are being used in Mining, , Oil & gas, Pipelines, forestry, and paper industries.
