ESA/NASA Joint Technology Demonstration with NASA Psyche Spacecraft
We are proud to announce a groundbreaking project for the ESA/NASA Joint Technology Demonstration with NASA Psyche Spacecraft.We will contribute with our technology to the latest achievements in laser communication and we can’t be more excited about that!
The Psyche mission will test a sophisticated deep space communication link at telecom wavelengths to stream data from hundreds of millions kilometer away.
Here, Single Quantum will step in by providing with a low dead time, low jitter, single photon detector array for the ESA/ESOC ground laser receiver to be installed in Greece Q4 2024.
Our SNSPD array system will disclose higher data-rates for new potential shorter range missions.
For this ESA/NASA Joint Technology Demonstration, we will work alongside our partners qtlabs – Quantum Technology Laboratories GmbH, General Atomics Synopta GmbH, qssys – Quantum Space Systems GmbH and Safran under the supervision of the European Space Agency – ESA to help bring this innovative technology to life.
