| |
| | | As the NewSpace industry grows, there is a rising trend toward using non-space-grade power solutions to accommodate reduced launch costs and timelines. However, this shift away from traditional, radiation-hardened technology introduces new risks. Without proper qualification, lower-cost alternatives can fail prematurely, jeopardizing time, resources... |
