About us
PSL is a unique national resource that supports the development and application of new and existing technologies. This multi-disciplined organization provides expertise in sub-orbital platforms, information modeling for predictive decision making, specialized intelligence community support, advanced NASA scientific exploration and experimentation, homeland security sensing and detection technologies, and advanced weapons and countermeasures development and testing designed to strengthen our national security. Founded in 1946 in response to the nation’s space and rocket programs, PSL’s growth in capability and talent has enabled the university to provide exceptional support to numerous scientific and technical activities across the nation and around the globe. Today’s domain expertise includes; Electronic Warfare, Counter Measures, Cyber, Telemetry and Missile Systems, 21st Century Aerospace and Scientific Ballooning. PSL maintains a catalog of telemetry and antenna systems designed and built in our laboratory. Additionally, custom flight hardware can be designed to meet customer needs. Staff credentials are primarily applied Hardware and Software experts that include engineering, software technologists and scientists focused on customer needs. PSL also has reach-back capabilities to other faculty members on campus to provide additional focused expertise. PSL operates a FAA approved Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Test at the Las Cruces Airport, using public non-restricted airspace. The UAS FTS operates under an FAA Certificate of Authorization (CoA) that permits UAS flights in over 15,000 square miles of coordinated airspace in southwestern New Mexico and extends from the surface to 18,000 feet mean sea level. Located on the main campus of New Mexico State University, PSL is in close proximity to White Sands Missile Range, Fort Bliss, NASA and the El Paso/borderland.
