Anritsu Corporation (President: Koichi Hamada) announces that DEWETRON, an Anritsu Group company, has provided technical support for the crewed lunar mission 'Artemis II' during the testing and verification phase leading up to the launch, utilizing its high-precision measurement and data acquisition systems.

'Artemis II' is one of the most significant modern space missions, marking the first crewed lunar flyby in over 50 years. Following their contribution to the Artemis I mission, DEWETRON has again contributed to the success of this mission by providing measurement technology that supports the evaluation of key spacecraft systems during the critical pre-launch testing and verification stages.

In April 2026, DEWETRON, a specialist in measurement technology, highlighted its significant role in the testing and verification phase of NASA’s 'Artemis II' mission.

DEWETRON’s measurement technology enables engineering teams to accurately analyze the performance, stability, and durability of critical components under extreme conditions, long before the astronauts leave Earth.

This successful launch with four crew members represents a decisive step toward NASA's long-term vision of establishing a sustainable human activity base on the Moon and, ultimately, future crewed Mars exploration.

Christoph Wiedner, CEO of DEWETRON, and Albon Redzepi, President & Operations Officer of DEWETRON Inc., stated in a joint statement:
'We are extremely proud that our technology is contributing to a mission of such scale and significance. Artemis II is the next major step in human spaceflight, and we are honored to be a part of it.'

Participation in Artemis II further demonstrates DEWETRON's international reputation in the fields of aerospace testing, high-dynamic data acquisition, and critical safety validation systems.

Based in Grambach, Austria, DEWETRON previously contributed to the Artemis I launch, an achievement recognized by NASA. Their involvement in Artemis II reinforces this strong trust.

While companies like DEWETRON may not stand in the spotlight, they are essential to missions like Artemis II. DEWETRON’s measurement systems provide engineers with a critical data foundation to ensure that all systems function reliably under the harsh conditions of space.

This contribution to Artemis II reaffirms that DEWETRON’s technology supports global innovation, research, and technical breakthroughs, ranging from e-mobility and renewable energy to the most advanced and demanding missions in space exploration.
