About This Course
AI in Space Exploration explores how machine learning is reshaping both what we learn from space and how missions operate. You work with the data streams of the field — satellite imagery, telemetry and remote-sensing measurements — and build models for tasks like Earth observation, object and event detection, and anomaly spotting in spacecraft data. The course also touches on autonomy: how on-board AI helps satellites and probes make decisions with limited contact. You finish able to apply machine learning to a real space or Earth-observation dataset. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
