Gladly HPS announces with a new 20-minutes-movie the completion of the H2020-development \u201eLEA-X5\u201c, the 5m class European Large Deployable Reflector Subsystem (LDRS) operating in X-band.<\/p>\n
The film itself is of course showing recent environmental and deployment tests, but it is mainly about PEOPLE, who are space engineers and space enthusiasts, and what they can achieve with combined powers and brains. These people, together with the enablers European Commission and European Space Agency, are making the achievement of \u201eEuropean Non-dependance\u201c happen.<\/p>\n
