This is why we have taken SpaceWire standards specified by the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA and featured them in our Xevo TQ-S micro tandem quad mass spectrometer.<\/p>\n<p>SpaceWire standards are used by the ESA and NASA to ensure fast and reliable communications to spacecraft. By incorporating SpaceWire technology into the Xevo TQ-S micro you can save time and money as it enables high speed data transmission resulting in easier transfer of methods between instruments of different analytical sensitivities. High sensitivity becomes more accessible and you no longer have to run multiple analyses because the wider dynamic range, enabled by the inclusion of SpaceWire technology, allows samples with very different analyte concentrations to be accurately quantified in the same sample analysis.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.waters.com\/waters\/en_US\/Xevo-TQ-S-micro\/nav.htm?cid=134798856\">Find out more about SpaceWire in Xevo TQ-S micro<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/mission_pages\/newhorizons\/main\/index.html\">Find out more about the New Horizons Pluto Mission<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spacewire.esa.int\/content\/Home\/HomeIntro.php\">Find out more about SpaceWire standards<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NASA made history again recently as the spacecraft New Horizons successfully flew by Pluto, the last of the nine \u2018classical\u2019 planets, to gather valuable data about an area of our solar system that we know very little about.
