Arnold Engineering and Development Center in Tennessee is overseeing the reactivation of the National Full-Scale Aerodynamic Complex at Moffett Field, Calif., and expects to see it reopen, after a three-year hiatus, in December. NFAC, billed as the world’s largest wind tunnel, will become an AEDC remote operating location. AEDC has employed Remote Access Technology of Rodeo, Calif., as well as a new NFAC operating workforce and former staff to reactivate the facility.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
