About this work

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – The components of NASA's International Space Station-RapidScat scatterometer instrument are moved into a laboratory inside Kennedy Space Center's Space Station Processing Facility. ISS-RapidScat is the first scientific Earth-observing instrument designed to operate from the exterior of the space station. It will measure Earth's ocean surface wind speed and direction, providing data to be used in weather and marine forecasting.
