During his time with the MOD, Stuart initiated the TopSat satellite programme, which is now on-orbit conducting its Earth-observation mission. Indeed TopSat has been so successful that the engineering model of the satellite now forms part of the recently re-vamped space gallery at the Science Museum in London.
