The Geophysical Institute’s Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF) at the University of Alaska Fairbanks will be breaking ground for a new antenna in support of the SCNS (Space Communications Network Services) program at NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration).

New NASA satellite missions, to be launched in the next few years and to be supported by ASF, will contribute to fundamental science breakthroughs and applications development in many areas of Earth science. Satellite observations from ASF contribute to the understanding of Arctic processes.

Please join ASF on 01 August 2012, 1:30 pm, at the North Campus access road to celebrate ASF’s continued strong relationship with the NASA Ground Network.
