For more than 35 years, we have quietly supplied the sensors for scores of space-based missions. We excel in the development of new materials and new packaging techniques to meet the demands of this most hostile environment. Programs include Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), Defense Support Program (DSP), National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS), and Space Radar.
