Deep Space Probes

Deep space probes travel beyond Earth's orbit for scientific exploration. These probes function autonomously, relying on remote commands and pre-programmed instructions to navigate the solar system and beyond.

They are equipped with a suite of sophisticated instruments, including cameras, spectrometers, magnetometers, and cosmic ray detectors to collect data. The technology required for these probes is incredibly advanced, including onboard computers, power systems, and communication equipment capable of operating in the extreme conditions of deep space.

A heritage of reliability

AEM builds components that are a testament to longevity and integrity — enabling exploration in the unforgiving environment of deep space.

Our solutions are crucial to many different aspects of deep space exploration. Our RF: microwave to millimeter wave components enable the communication systems of deep space probes, which need to send vast amounts of data over billions of miles. Meanwhile, our high-reliability fuses play a vital role in protecting sensitive equipment from overcurrents or short circuits.
