Success Story: Dual-Purpose Space Simulation Facility for Satellite and Plasma Thruster Testing

The Australian National University’s Research School of Astronomy and Physics needed a test facility to support both thermal vacuum and plasma thruster testing for several high-profile programs including the Giant Magellan Telescope, Australian Plasma Thruster and Australian CubeSats.

James Webb Space Telescope

To conduct deep space testing for its new James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), NASA needed to upgrade its historic Chamber A at the Johnson Space Center that was famously used to test Apollo space craft.
