DescriptionFreedom Star passes through Canaveral Draw Bridge (KSC-2012-1981).jpg |
English: NASA’s Freedom Star boat sets out for a day of testing after departing from port near Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida for the Atlantic Ocean with NASA’s Mobile Aerospace Reconnaissance System, or MARS, secured aboard. Here it is seen passing through the SR-401 Canaveral Draw Bridge in the Canaveral Barge Canal, just off the Banana River. MARS, run by NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Va., with its spatial, hyperspectral, thermal, and directed energy capabilities will be used for thermal imaging testing for the upcoming SpaceX Falcon 9 and Dragon capsule test flight to the International Space Station. During today’s test, the MARS X-band radar and kineto tracking mount KTM were tested to ensure that they were synchronized to receive a rocket launch feed. The radar was used to identify an object to see if the KTM could lock on to and track it. The MARS team performed maintenance on the system, confirmed communications links, and tested the design of the mounting system and environmental enclosure. |
