Capella Space and Tendeg developed the first SAR payload for the C-2 mission in 2020. The new antennas will incorporate ...

Northwood Space has completed initial testing of the second generation of its phased array antenna technology, which can ...

The new antenna is part of NASA’s Deep Space Network (DSN), a network of giant dish antennas communicating with spacecraft via radio waves. The new antenna, however, can also receive near ...

Voyager 1, launched in September 1977, uses more than one set of thrusters to function properly. Primary thrusters carefully orient the spacecraft so it can keep its antenna pointed at Earth.

A parabolic antenna is a simple enough device, a curved reflector designed to focus all the radiation from the direction it’s pointed into a waveguide or antenna at its feedpoint. They’… ...

NASA’s twin Voyager spacecraft, launched in 1977, are now traveling through interstellar space at around 35,000 mph (56,000 kph). This artist’s concept depicts one of the probes speeding away.

The antenna is part of NASA’s Deep Space Network (DSN), an array of giant radio antennas spread across different parts of the world that the space agency has relied on to relay communications ...

Commands sent to Voyager 2 on July 21 accidentally caused the spacecraft’s antenna to point 2 degrees away from Earth. The miniscule shift means that Voyager 2 can’t receive any commands from ...

NASA’s Deep Space Network (DSN), which receives signals from these deep space missions, is now experimenting with a hybrid design antenna that can receive both radio and laser signals.

Last month the European Space Agency (ESA) approved the latest milestone in this era, a €1.5 billion ($1.6 billion) space observatory called the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA).

Throughout Rosetta’s decade-long adventure, the new Australian antenna will be the main communications link between the spacecraft and the ESOC Mission Control in Darmstadt, Germany.
