APL’s flight-proven X-band comms tech is headed to Mars as part of @NASA’s ESCAPADE mission, including the APL-designed Frontier Radio Lite (commercialized by Rocket Lab), APL solid state power amplifiers and high-gain radial line slot array antennas.
After a successful launch on @blueorigin’s New Glenn rocket, our ESCAPADE mission has begun its journey - ultimately destined for Mars. The twin spacecraft will orbit the Red Planet, investigating how the solar wind stripped its atmosphere. https://t.co/URspHkGcLx
