Shaking on SHARAD's Success
Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Project Manager Jim Graf congratulates Dr. Enrico Flamini, the Italian Space Agency's program manager for the Shallow Subsurface Radar (SHARAD). In the background, on the screen, is the visual representation of the echo pulse that the antenna sent and received from the surface of Mars. This exercise demonstrated that the antenna is working properly.
