A Piece of NISAR Heading into JPL’s Spacecraft Assembly Facility

The S-band SAR, one of two kinds of radar on the NISAR mission, arrived at JPL on March 19. The next day, technicians and engineers moved the S-SAR into the airlock to the Spacecraft Assembly Facility’s High Bay 1 clean room. The equipment will be unpacked over several days in the clean room. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
