Some of these companies have expressed the desire to use the services of MSUDenver in the testing of small satellites if those services were available. Manufacturers of testingequipment have also been approached to understand the range and limitations of theirequipment’s, the capabilities and the cost. Following these conversations, there appears to be anopportunity MSU Denver Engineering Department to cooperate with this industry.
