Description

The FuseBlox™ connector system is an all-in-one spacecraft docking and connection device with significant ground development heritage. The primary focus of this Phase I effort is the design of a modified mechanical interface to support launch payloads in a docked configuration. Secondary design efforts are aimed at cost reduction and the addition of a fluid transfer interface. A simplified prototype will be built to demonstrate and test key features resulting from the design effort.
