In Episode 3 of Are We There Yet? , Tamara Bond-Williams speaks with Toni Spatola, Chief Commercial Officer of Filtronic , about the communications and navigation infrastructure that may enable safe operations beyond Earth orbit. Using the Artemis II communications blackout as a starting point, the conversation explores how governments and industry are building the communications, positioning, and navigation systems that future lunar missions may depend upon.
