MDA Brampton
This project entitled "" Satellite Refuelling Tool and Next Generation Robotic Joint Technology Research and Development "" has the following objective (s): 

The MDA's proposed R&D project is the next stage in the development of Canada's on orbit servicing capabilities and technologies and the next generation of exploration missions. It leverages the technical foundation previously created through CSA's Next Generation Canadarm (NGC) program, and continues the technology development in two key areas, so as to advance the TRL and retire risks:

1. Design and testing of the NGC Refueling Tool to address remaining technological unknowns, including full compatibility with client fill/drain valves and tool state sensing. This development will complete the preliminary design and full functionality of the tool.

2. Cold temperature testing of Harmonic Drives, using load, speed, and temperature conditions consistent with on-orbit robotic applications, to address the technological unknowns of
