Everything, all of the electronics on the vehicle itself, every component had its own solid-state circuit breaker so that we could turn things on and off, and control what was happening.

"When you slide that door open, all of the electronics are exposed to the near-vacuum, so we had to develop a solid-state breaker that was monitoring actual loads across that circuit, " Thompson said.
