About us

AMOS has been designing and manufacturing high-precision optical and mechanical equipment for 40 years. Its main products are telescopes for professional astronomy, ground-based or space-based optical systems, spacecraft test facilities and high-precision mechanical equipment. AMOS is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of telescopes from 2 to 4 m in diameter, and the European leader for space optics. Today, AMOS employs over 100 highly qualified engineers, technicians and workers. Thanks to its expertise and ability to design as well as manufacture in-house, AMOS remains one of the rare Belgian integrators capable of managing, in-house or with local subcontractors, a project from A to Z, with technologies as different as mechanics, optics, thermal or electronics. To date, AMOS has contributed to more than 40 space missions.

    𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐋𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐝: Our Compact Hyperspectral Imager, #ELOIS, has been successfully tested! ☑ TVAC Thermal Cycling Test: Instrument ready for its intended orbit. ☑ Calibration campaign for VNIR and SWIR channels AMOS' compact #hyperspectral imager, ELOIS, boasts unique capabilities (35 m GSD / 70 km swath / 400 - 2500 nm / >200 bands). It has successfully completed its Thermal Vacuum Cycling Test and Calibration Campaign at Centre Spatial de Liège, proving to be fully functional for imaging during the foreseen orbit. Kudos to our partners Caeleste and DELTATEC for their stellar support with the VNIR Detector and Readout Electronics. More news coming soon. Stay tuned!

    🌟At AMOS, we are thrilled to have been a part of the nearly ending groundbreaking #GAIA mission, a flagship European Space Agency - ESA initiative to which our team contributed by producing 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐆𝐀𝐈𝐀 𝐦𝐢𝐫𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐬, instrumental in mapping the Milky Way.🌟 For over a decade, GAIA has provided a wealth of data, enabling scientists to reconstruct the structure and history of our galaxy. With a three-dimensional map of nearly one billion stars, GAIA's high-precision instruments have set 𝐚 𝐧𝐞𝐰 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. As the spacecraft prepares to leave its orbit around Lagrange point L2 and transitions to its final heliocentric orbit, we celebrate the mission's success and look forward to the lasting impact of this historic endeavor. Here's to the stars and beyond! 🌌 #GAIAMission #Astronomy #SpaceExploration

    🌌🚀 𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰? A supernova is a massive explosion that occurs at the end of a star's life cycle, brightening up the night sky and creating stunning cosmic events! 🌠 On the other hand, exoplanets are fascinating worlds located outside our solar system, orbiting distant stars and potentially harboring life! 🌍✨ At AMOS, we're dedicated to exploring these cosmic wonders, pushing the boundaries of space knowledge and innovation. Join us on our journey through the universe! #SpaceExploration #Supernova #Exoplanets
