A team of Mason scientists, led by principal investigator Peter Becker, has received a federal grant of more than $13 million to work with the U.S. Navy to study electronic communications disruptions caused by increased solar activity that could potentially cause an “internet apocalypse.”

�������� is about to activate a massive satellite dish! Scheduled for the scrapyard in 2020, the 27-year-old, 30-foot satellite dish on its Fairfax �������� will be used by engineering students—as well as those in other Mason schools and colleges—for multidisciplinary, hands-on experience and projects.

A team of seniors from the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) department combined their knowledge and skills to win the Space and Satellites Professionals International (SSPI) student prize competition.
