Project ARTEMISとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Project ARTEMIS was a project undertaken by the United States Navy in the 1960s, which produced a Low Frequency Active Sonar system that could detect submarines at long range. Robert A. Frosch, in his capacity as Technical Director of Hudson Laboratories (Columbia University) was TD of the project. Dr. Frosch later went on to be the 5th administrator of NASA.
