Eta Space has been awarded a Phase I STTR contract to research rapid cryogenic cooling of superconducting systems for defense applications. The six-month contract with Florida State University’s Center for Advanced Power Systems (CAPS) began July 7. The Phase I contract will consist of thermal design and analysis with an optional period of prototype testing. Upon successful Phase I execution, the Eta Space and FSU team from the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering led by Professor Juan Ordóñez, along with Peter Cheetham, Ph.D. and Chul Kim, Ph.D., will demonstrate the capability at a relevant scale in a laboratory environment. The demonstration will be conducted at Eta Space’s in-house facility. This contract offers a paramount achievement for Eta Space as the company ventures into its upcoming division, Eta Defense.
