As the spacecraft enters the Martian atmosphere, Karman\u2019s system will deploy a parachute to slow the vehicle before the mission releases three helicopters to study Martian weather patterns and search for subsurface ice deposits.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cMars is one of the most demanding environments in the solar system, and there are no second chances during entry and descent,\u201d said Jon Rambeau, chief executive officer of Karman Space &amp; Defense. \u201cSkyFall calls for precise, reliable performance at a critical point in the mission. This award reflects our ability to take mission-critical hardware from concept through delivery on an accelerated timeline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe award marks the first time Karman will fully design and develop a system for a Mars mission. It builds on the company\u2019s 50-year heritage in space exploration, including actuators, forward bay thrusters and positioning components for the Orion capsule on the Artemis II mission.<\/p>\n<p>\nManaged by NASA JPL, SkyFall is designed to be the first mission to fly a team of instrument-carrying helicopters on Mars. The rotorcraft will carry JPL-designed ground-penetrating radar to study shallow subsurface ice, a priority for understanding Mars and supporting future human space exploration.<\/p>\n<p>\nNASA is currently targeting a November 2028 launch window for SkyFall.<\/p>\n<p><b>About Karman Space &amp; Defense<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nKarman Space &amp; Defense is the specialized engineering and manufacturing partner behind many of the nation&#8217;s most critical defense and space programs.
