Current IssueVoices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.
It's Show Time!
In this month’s issue of PCB007 Magazine we reimagine the possibilities featuring stories all about IPC APEX EXPO 2025—covering what to look forward to, and what you don’t want to miss.

US Space Force Selects L3Harris to Continue Modernization of Space Domain Awareness Program ATLAS
March 25, 2025 | L3Harris TechnologiesEstimated reading time: 1 minute
L3Harris Technologies has received a $90 million follow-on, sole-source contract from U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command to further advance the nation’s Space Domain Awareness (SDA), a top Department of Defense priority.
The Space Force selected the company to develop, integrate and deliver a package of astrometric tools that will increase the capability of the Advanced Tracking and Launch Analysis System (ATLAS), which integrates all SDA, space command and control (C2), intelligence, operational and system readiness-relevant data to help drive course-of-action development and decisions. This new continuation contract will modernize C2 by increasing the speed, accuracy and relevancy in tracking satellites and space debris.
“We recognize Space Domain Awareness is critical to the Space Force and is essential to defending vital national interests,” said Ed Zoiss, President, Space and Airborne Systems, L3Harris. “Our work on the ATLAS program will enhance space operations and will help prevent adversaries from disrupting, degrading and destroying U.S. space capabilities.”
The ATLAS modernization will improve the Space Force’s ability to avoid operational surprise and ensure warfighters can quickly and accurately respond to emerging anti-satellite threats. For more than 30 years, L3Harris has provided mission-proven solutions for the nation’s space superiority mission to protect assets and increase warfighter readiness.
