Radiation-Shielding Experimental Module (RSEM) By TakeMe2Space, India
Mission Objective with POEM RSEM is a module to test the effectiveness of Tantalum (Ta) coating for radiation shielding in space. Satellite builders today are dependent on radiation-hardened electronic components which has 60-90 weeks lead time and also 10x the cost of nonhardened components. The coating developed by TakeMe2Space would hence help satellite builders to…
