Michael Gazarik, a vice president at Ball Aerospace, took a three-year seat at the NASA Advisory Council's technology, innovation and engineering committee in July.

NASA has selected Ball Aerospace to develop a spacecraft that would help the agency study the atmosphere's outermost region that transitions into space as part of the agency's heliophysics science mission of opportunity. The company said Tuesday it will build the Global Lyman-alpha Imager of the Dynamic Exosphere or GLIDE spacecraft that would track the hydrogen-based ultraviolet light found in the region.

A Ball Aerospace-built ozone layer monitoring instrument has been shipped to a manufacturing facility for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Joint Polar Satellite System-2 satellite.

Ball Aerospace has been selected to conduct three research projects to explore sustainable land imaging platforms that could support Earth observation satellite operations under a joint NASA-U.S. Geological Survey program.

A team comprised of Lockheed Martin and Ball Aerospace has completed transmission testing for a next-generation antenna system that will serve as part of the U.S. Space Force's modernized satellite control network.

Ball Aerospace, which partnered with Booz Allen Hamilton, has been awarded a contract by the Space Rapid Capabilities Office (SpRCO) to serve as the prime system integrator for the SpRCO Ground Command, Control and Communications (GC3) system, Ball Aerospace said Thursday. GC3 will support larger tactical command and control enterprise for the U.S. Space Force.

Ball Aerospace has concluded on-orbit testing activities for a small satellite containing an Air Force Research Laboratory-developed nontoxic propellant as part of a NASA effort to deploy sustainable and environmentally friendly spacecraft.

Ball Aerospace has sent two small land imaging instruments to orbit for final flights as part of NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey's Landsat program.

Ball Aerospace has won a potential $7.7M contract from the U.S. Air Force to explore methods for analyzing the characteristics of infrared-based focal plane array technology and related devices.
