Limited availability of external payload sites on
ISS after 2017, but demand exists until ISS EoL
Versatile external payload hosting facility
meeting the demand of different types of
customers at the same time
Access to improved visibility of Earth and space
on ISS Columbus module
Attract new users outside classic microgravity /
space research to ISS, new use cases
5. Bartolomeo Concept
Bartolomeo platform envisaged to host multiple medium to large size payloads outside Columbus module
• SpaceX trunk compatible platform, to be installed with one EVA / EVR
• FRAM-size payloads locations
• Smaller JEM Airlock compatible payload positions
• Fully EVR compatible platform maintenance and payload exchange
• Power and data management system
• Cooling system
With Teledyne’s Multiple User System for Earth Sensing (MUSES) Bartolomeo provides
• Instrument pointing
• Instrument line of sight stabilization
End-to-end platform operation by Airbus DS and Teledyne Brown in partnership with ESA and NASA under
Space Act Agreement
