Dr. Damon Bradley
FOUNDER & PRESIDENT
Dr. Bradley started DeepSpace Technologies with a passion for and over 20 years of experience inventing digital signal processing systems for space exploration, astrophysics, and Earth science. He spent 2 decades at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center as a branch head, founder of the DSP technology group, and an innovator winning approximately $10 million in new funding for various R&D programs in the areas of radio spectrometry, smallsat instrumentation, and planetary exploration. In addition to scientific research, he managed over 30 projects valued over $100 million with a staff of 74 personnel while branch head in his last 3 years at NASA. Dr. Bradley holds a patent as an inventor of the software-defined-radiometer (patent #10768213) and has developed spectral radio signal processing systems for Earth, Lunar, and Saturn-exploration applications.

Eric Lynum
CHIEF HARDWARE ENGINEER
Mr. Lynum has over 20 years of experience in the digital electronics arena. He previously worked at a military communications company called ICSG in Falls Church, VA as a project manager/senior engineer for over 5 years supporting the production of the AN/AYQ-27 ICS. He has been the principal investigator and design engineer on In-House Research and Design (IRAD) projects for fiber optic communications systems and wireless communications systems. Before joining ICSG, Mr. Lynum worked for NASA and produced a system to test the SpaceWire ASIC for Lockheed Martin Space Electronics and Communications (now part of BAE). Mr. Lynum also wrote an article published in Xilinx’s “Embedded” Magazine on designing real world embedded PowerPC applications.

Dr. William Farrell
CHIEF SCIENTIST
Dr. Farrell is a space physicist with over 32 years of past federal service at NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center. His primary research interests include planetary magnetospheric processes, the space environment at our Moon, the solar wind, and planetary atmospheric electricity. During his career, he has been involved in over 30 NASA or DoD projects at various levels (data analyst, hardware provider, principal investigator). He has led the build of nearly a dozen radio sensors or systems that were flown on balloons, remotely piloted vehicles, or spacecraft. His specialty device is the induction magnetometer (search coil) where he holds a patent on a lightweight magnetic antenna design. He has received ten NASA Group Achievement Awards, the Robert H. Goddard Award for Exceptional Achievement in Science, and the NASA Exceptional Scientific Achievement Medal. He has authored/co-authored over 250 refereed journal articles & book chapters on space science topics.
