NASA has selected Ball Aerospace & Technologies to design and develop a cryostat for a science mission that aims to measure emissions from the interstellar medium and study the life cycle of interstellar gas in the Milky Way. Ball Aerospace said Thursday it will build the cryostat to generate a temperature-controlled for detectors of the University of Arizona-led Galactic/Extragalactic Ultralong Duration Balloon […] More
NASA has picked a potential $40 million science mission that aims to measure emissions from the cosmic material – interstellar medium – that can be found among stars in order to generate data for use in research into the Milky Way galaxy. The Galactic/Extragalactic [Ultralong-Duration Balloon] Spectroscopic Terahertz Observatory mission seeks to offer a “complete […] More
