I expect that parts of the solution to the safe landing of the Dragonfly might be overlapping imaging (phodar) and/or lidar. I'm certain that all the pieces are there; I'm wondering if they've been put together in a complete package tested in use. If they have been, the military would seem likely the likely developer and user.
Since this is an obvious question, I'm sure that the proposers have an answer. I'll be interested to see if they choose to share it. -------------------- |
