The Robotic Servicing of Geosynchronous Satellites (RSGS) payload integrated with the Northrop Grumman Mission Robotics Vehicle (MRV) spacecraft bus sits outside the cryogenic thermal vacuum chamber after completing testing at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory’s (NRL) Naval Center for Space Technology (NCST) in Washington, D.C., Sept. 3, 2025. NRL NCST, with funding support from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), is conducting final space-readiness testing on RSGS, a robotic payload designed to extend and upgrade satellites already in orbit.
