Millennium Engineering and Integration

Millennium Engineering and Integration (MEI)

Millennium Engineering and Integration, formerly an Axient company, has since been acquired by Astrion. Prior to Astrion's acquisition, Vertex Aerospace was contracted by MEI to provide thermal engineering support for the NASA awarded Project and Engineering Support Services (PESS-II) flight and mission projects.

Princeton U

Princeton University

Vertex Aerospace was contracted by Princeton University to develop simplified thermal models in support of the Solar Wind and Pickup Ion (SWAPI) instrument, which delivers the high temporal and energy resolution required to identify local acceleration for Pickup Ions (PUI) observations. Vertex Aerospace engineers used Thermal Desktop to generate gradient maps and temperature predictions for various components based on thermal cases provided by the Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) Spacecraft team, which were later integrated onto the IMAP Spacecraft Thermal Model.

York Space Systems (YSS)

Vertex Aerospace performed model development and thermal analysis for York Space Systems' Checkmate payload. This support included the use of Thermal Desktop to generate payload models based on power dissipations and worst case hot/cold analysis. Vertex Aerospace supported YSS's Khon Proposal with updates to power inputs heater/radiator sizing.

Science Systems and Applications (SSAI)

Vertex Aerospace was contracted by SSAI for work on their Electrical Systems Engineering Services (ESES-III) tasks, now represented as ESES-IV by Columbus Technologies and Services. Vertex Aerospace provided thermal engineering support for the following ESES-III subcontract projects:

  • Ocellus LiDAR Support
  • MUSTANG Engineering and Support
  • SQRLi LiDAR Support
  • RST DPE/Packaging
