MARSIS FFTs

The MARSIS ANTENNAS were designed and built by Northrop Grumman’s Astro Aerospace Corporation in Carpinteria, California, USA. The MARSIS Antennas are Foldable Flattenable Tube (FFT) systems with glass fiber tubular structures and integral hinges. The tubular structure supports an internal ladder-style uninsulated, low impedance copper antenna. The MARSIS design predates another FFT antenna system built by Astro Aerospace. The SHARAD (SHAllow RADar) system was flown on the Jet Propulsion Laboratories (JPL) Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO).
