Communication satellites

After testing is complete, the Robotic Servicing of Geosynchronous Satellites (RSGS) system is in a cryogenic thermal vacuum chamber at the US Naval Research Laboratory's Space Technology Center in Washington, DC, on October 8, 2024. Once in orbit, the system will perform inspections and maintenance for satellites in geosynchronous orbit. Credit: US Navy Photo, Sarah Peterson
