Yeah.. some years (6 or 7?) ago, John Prestage had a prototype of the
physics package working on the bench. Getting from there to a repeatably
manufacturable space flight qualified has been a few years. Not to
mention making flight qualified electronics to go around it. I think the
first flight will be next year or the year after as a hosted payload on
something.
Here is a starting-point:
JPL:
http://trs-new.jpl.nasa.gov/dspace/bitstream/2014/40206/3/04-2783FN.pdf
the last reference in that paper is from L.S. Cutler, et al. Is that the
same Cutler at HP?
Indeed it is. Guess who worked on the HP mercury ion clock?
Cheers,
Magnus
