The Photonics group top level processes regarding development and qualification of space flight hardware for optoelectronic components and optical systems along with our contributions and successes with LIDAR systems, space flight reliability heritage, and our testing capabilities are conveyed with this power point presentation.
Determine if lower priced Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) LiDARs could be viable for spaceflight missions by picking some representative examples and performing technology maturation environmental testing.
For the past 25 years, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center’s Photonics Group in the Engineering Directorate has been substantially contributing to the flight design, development, production, testing and integration of many science and navigational instruments. The group has an extensive background in screening, qualifying, development and integration of commercial components for spaceflight applications. They have been willing to communicate lessons learned in packaging, part construction, materials selection, testing, and other facets of the design and production process critical to implementation for high-reliability systems. Summarized here is the last ten years of instrumentation development lessons learned and data collected from the subsystems down to the optoelectronic component level.
