Research abstract
This NASA SBIR Phase I proposal presents an unprecedented method to make radiation tolerant bearing for deep-atmospheric probes to the giant planets. With our successful history in a variety of AM processing, this proposal has a great potential to succeed. A proof of concept demonstration is to be carried out at the end of Phase 1. A prototype will be delivered at the end of Phase II.
