IMAP Instrument Reintegration for CoDICE - Mechanical Installati
Technicians reintegrate the Compact Dual Ion Composition Experiment (CoDICE) instrument of NASA’s IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) observatory inside the high bay at the Astrotech Space Operations Facility near the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Friday, June 20, 2025. CoDICE will measure solar wind particles flowing from the Sun and pickup ions that entered the heliosphere from outside the solar system, as well as the direction of travel, and types of specific species of pickup ions. Launch of the IMAP mission is targeted for no earlier than September 2025 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA Kennedy.
