UofA Applied Research Building Tour

ยท radiotaku

The University of Arizona Applied Research Building is a new facility funded to perform space development and research. I had the opportunity to get a tour around the various labs and instrumentation housed in the facility. Below is a few pictures I am able to show.

Anechoic chamber used to test radios, antennas, and space vehicle communications development (cool stuff I could rant all day about).

Various CCDs from the UofA Imaging Laboratory. The top right sensor is the same CCD used in the Hubble Space telescope.
