ES-MCAT Mirror Shipping Crate
80JSC025PA006
NASA's Orbital Debris Program Office requires recoating the mirror for its ES-MCAT telescope on Ascension Island and building a new shipping container. The work must be performed by Viavi Solutions, as they are identified as the only source with the specific expertise and cleanroom control needed to recoat the mirror and build a container that can withstand 30g's of force. The mirror is already at Viavi's location. After recoating, the mirror must be shipped back to Ascension Island. The need for action is urgent due to the rapid degradation of the current coating.
