Distribution in space and event detection are the fundamental ingredients to start building up the whole scientific experiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This ambitious goal will be achieved exploiting at most the Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components, currently under-performing in space environment, but with the potential to provide high impact and radical transformations in space application.
