Author: JET PROPULSION LABORATORY
Title: Jet Propulsion Laboratory Folder of Information Related to Current Projects As of 1988
Description: Pasadena, CA: Jet Propulsion Laboratory, 1988. Ephemera. B&W and Color Illustrations; The Folder is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. The folder has several small edge tears to the bottom spine end and some light bumping to the corners. This folder includes fact sheets from JPL including: Robotics Biomedical Technology, Craf (Comet Rendezvous Asteriod Flyby) , NSCAT (Nasa Scatterometer) , Voyager 2 at Uranus, Jet Propulsion Laboratory History, DSN (Deep Space Network) , and Project Galileo. Also included are the booklets To Uranus and Beyond and The Voyager Flights to Jupiter and Saturn. There is also an official photograph of Jupiter. "The JPL is owned by NASA and managed by the nearby California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for NASA. The laboratory's primary function is the construction and operation of planetary robotic spacecraft, though it also conducts Earth-orbit and astronomy missions. It is also responsible for operating NASA's Deep Space Network. Among the laboratory's major active projects are the Mars Science Laboratory mission (which includes the Curiosity rover) , the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the Dawn mission to the dwarf planet Ceres and asteroid Vesta, the Juno spacecraft orbiting Jupiter, the NuSTAR X-ray telescope, and the Spitzer Space Telescope. It is also responsible for managing the JPL Small-Body Database, and provides physical data and lists of publications for all known small Solar System bodies.". Very Good+ .
