The Space Report (Q2/2023), published by the Space Foundation, includes an informative section entitled, “Space Products & Innovation”.
The interesting origin and forty years of successful operation of the Cospas-Sarsat System are described, largely based on an interview with our own Mr Jim King.
The section is available at: https://www.cospas-sarsat.int/images/content/articles/The_Space_Report_2023_Q2_Search__Rescue.pdf
