Do you know off hand if the group at KU will be using any NASA related technology in this endeavor (i.e. de-icing technology that allows their crafts to travel through space without freezing up)? In essence it sounds as if this UAV has a lot in common with the U.S. military’s unmanned aircraft/spy planes currently being used in Iraq, except of course without weapons. Keep us informed of the progress if you can. This sounds like a very intriguing project with loads of potential in understanding one of the most extreme areas of our planet.
