About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Working in near-darkness inside the clean room high bay at the Astrotech payload processing facility near NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, technicians use black lights to inspect a solar panel on one of NASA's twin Radiation Belt Storm Probes. The technicians are dressed in clean-room attire known as “bunny suits.” Black-light inspection uses UVA fluorescence to detect possible microcontamination, small cracks or fluid leaks.
