NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory | How to Pack a Spacecraft: Science Payload on Earth Science Mission Heads to India @NASAJPL | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 day ago
Part of a partnership between NASA and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the spacecraft known as NISAR – short for NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar – recently moved one step closer to being able to study changes to the land and ice on Earth. Take a behind-the-scenes trip with NISAR Mechanical Integration Lead Scott Nowak into the clean room at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California as he highlights the NISAR team’s work to assemble the satellite’s science instrument payload and to pack it up to ship out to ISRO’s satellite facility in Bengaluru, India. Technicians and engineers there will integrate the instruments into the main body, or bus, of the satellite, and put it through further testing in preparation for a 2024 launch.
