The subsystem will provide on-board communication signal processing capabilities for the Dream Chaser Cargo System, a cargo transportation spacecraft being developed by SNC under the NASA Commercial Resupply Services (CRS2) program.

Key Points: 
  • The subsystem will provide on-board communication signal processing capabilities for the Dream Chaser Cargo System, a cargo transportation spacecraft being developed by SNC under the NASA Commercial Resupply Services (CRS2) program.
  • The spacecraft is scheduled for at least six cargo delivery missions to and from the International Space Station between 2020 and 2024.
  • "We are excited to have been selected by MDA to provide the safety-critical RTOS platform for this prestigious project," said Greg Rose, vice president of marketing and product management at DDC-I.
  • "We have enjoyed working with DDC-I to develop advanced new communications capabilities for SNC's Dream Chaser Cargo System," said Steven Tasker, Program Manager DCCS Comm Subsystem at MDA.
