Deep space

Podcast with Andrea Banfi, Business Development Manager EMEA at Vicor, and Gerald Angerer, Lead Hardware Engineer, Microgate

In this episode of Electronics Specifier Insights, Andrea and Gerald discuss how Colossal Earth-based telescopes require sophisticated adaptive optics to enhance deep space images. Microgate is committed to deep space exploration through the instantaneous, precise manipulation of exceptionally complex mirrors. Vicor power modules are instrumental to powering the adaptive optics for these next-generation telescopes.

The conversation explores how these two companies are working together to power the next generation of extremely large telescopes (ELTs), specifically the European Southern Observatory's (ESO) flagship project.
