The successful deorbit, descent, and landing of spacecraft on the Moon requires precise control and monitoring of vehicle dynamics. Anomaly detection provides a unique utility for identifying important states that might represent vehicle behaviors of interest. By producing unique vehicle behavior points, critical spacecraft system states can be identified toContinue Reading

In a new study, physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have used a cloud of atoms chilled down to incredibly cold temperatures to simultaneously measure acceleration in three dimensions — a feat that many scientists didn’t think was possible. The device, a new type of atom “interferometer,” could oneContinue Reading
