Description: Test, test, and re-test. That’s Dawn’s motto—and a requirement for all missions flown by NASA. Spacecraft go through extensive planning and testing before launch and throughout flight. When a spacecraft is hundreds of millions of miles from Earth, how do they manage it? Welcome to the Dawn Test Bed!
A collaboration between Dawn Education and Public Education and our CosmoQuest
