Successful DFAT of Roman Space Telescope at L3Harris in New York

Building upon the successful DFAT of the Roman WFOV Instrument at BAE Space & Mission Systems in Colorado, MSI DFAT has recently completed the continued acoustic qualification of the fully assembled Roman Space Telescope at L3Harris in New York. This accomplishment underscores the space industry's confidence in MSI DFAT's capabilities as a trusted partner in spacecraft acoustic testing.

We anticipate sharing more details soon. This testing event further solidifies our reputation for providing high-quality Direct Field Acoustic Tests (DFAT). No other company on Earth has qualified more than 200 spacecraft using the methods we pioneered in the '90s. We remain the preferred partner in the space, aerospace, and defense industries, known for our reliability and efficiency in getting the job done right the first time—at a lower cost and in less time than any other provider.
