As Needed Radiation Shielding - System In Package Radiation Shielding
Project Description
Develop an as needed radiation shielding technology thereby reducing the need for an electronic vault.
More »Anticipated Benefits
The benefits of spot shielding analyzed for this task include reduced electronic vault (radiation shielding) mass and the possibility of distribution of electronics. These benefits are particularly critical for low-mass missions to high radiation environments. The approach is under consideration for elements of the Europa Lander.
