SpaceNews' Mike Gruss interviewed Frontgrade CTO Lorne Graves about how spacecraft processing is adapting to the rise of megaconstellations and what lessons can be drawn from electronic warfare. Frontgrade, which has supported every U.S. crewed space mission since Apollo 11, provides radio frequency systems, mission processing, microelectronics, and motion control for modular spacecraft architectures. The Space Minds podcast, a new SpaceNews series, features weekly interviews with space leaders, experts, and scientists. Graves said increasing numbers of satellites in megaconstellations require greater on‑board processing to manage data routing, payload operations, and real‑time adjustments. He noted that enhanced processing can improve mission efficiency, reduce reliance on ground stations, and enable faster responses to changing orbital conditions. The conversation also highlighted how electronic warfare techniques inform spacecraft design for resilience against interference and cyber threats. Frontgrade's capabilities include modular hardware and software solutions intended to accelerate mission development and integration. The podcast releases new episodes each Thursday on SpaceNews.com and its YouTube, Spotify, and Apple channels, and registration offers early access to upcoming episodes.
