- Description
- MDA�s mission is to develop and deploy a layered Missile Defense System to defend the US, its deployed forces, allies, and friends from missile attacks in all phases of flight.� MDA is investigating several types of infrared detectors that need to be cooled to cryogenic temperatures in order to perform within specifications.� Cryocoolers are the components on a spacecraft that provide this cryogenic cooling.� Currently, space-based cryocoolers are designed, fabricated, and qualified in low numbers and at great cost per unit.� The MDA�s Directorate for Advanced Concepts and Performance Assessments (DVS) is investigating various solutions to both reduce the cost, and increase the production rate, of space-based cryocoolers
