The RSS used the high-gain antenna and the spacecraft's communications system to study the physical properties (masses, gravity fields and densities) of the planets and moons; and to determine the ...

The spacecraft is also almost exactly where it was predicted to be, allowing for tracking using high-gain antennas, Gialich added. The team believes there are two possibilities for the issues.

A new microwave antenna simplifies EMI testing of large objects in smaller EMC chambers while complying with RF standards.
