Wednesday, November 16th from Kennedy Space Center, Florida, the NASA – National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s SLS rocket will take its first flight.
The first mission named “Artemis I” is unmanned. The SLS rocket will carry the Orion Spacecraft, which will orbit the Moon.
Subsequent Artemis missions will bring astronauts back to the #Moon and send the first humans to Mars.
Safran Data Systems Inc has been supporting this program since 2010, being selected for equipment onboard the rocket as well as on the ground to collect the rocket #telemetry:
- The onboard video imagery system utilizes our Heim MDR Series recorder, capturing, processing and telemetering video streams from cameras placed throughout the SLS rocket.
- On the ground, NASA’s ground stations rely on multiple Safran’s equipment: SPARTE tracking antenna, Cortex Series telemetry receivers & RF recorders and Heim GMDR video processor delivering in real-time telemetered data and videos to NASA.
In other words, the display of rocket imagery is made possible thanks to Safran technologies allowing all Space enthusiasts to fully experience this historical moment.
