In Episode 17 of Roid Rage, Chap (CoS), Matt (CEO), and Robyn (COO) chat with Colin, Principal Engineer here at AstroForge, about deep space communications. Colin explains what makes talking to a spacecraft millions of kilometers away difficult - power, small antennas, and weak signals - and how link budgets, coding, and ground stations make it possible. He also shares learnings from his extensive career and why comms is a critical part of mission success.
