Jean Paul Santos, Prof. Rahmat-Samii, and I were invited to write a feature article for a news featured on an online news organization sourced from the academic and research community, The Conversation. Through a collaboration with JPL engineers, we were able to prototype a 4×4 subarray antenna with excellent measured results, potentially allowing its use for the upcoming Mars2020 mission. This was a great opportunity to publicize our work, considering that The Conversation website has an annual audience of roughly 23 million people globally. So far, we have had 9000 views!
