Wallops Flight Facility Support for Second Cubesat-based Science Misson

这是一笔向NASA戈达德太空飞行中心瓦勒普斯飞行设施（NASA WFF）的资金转移，用于管理和工程服务，以支持美国国家科学基金会资助的卫星任务，该任务将于2010年8月由国家侦察局发射。美国国家科学基金会赞助的纳米卫星是一颗“三（3U）立方体卫星”，将利用多皮卫星轨道部署器（P-POD）系统。美国国家科学基金会纳米卫星任务的目的是进行一项大气科学实验，旨在研究地面伽马射线闪光。NASA WFF将为NSF提供技术援助，以准备、记录和测试立方体卫星系统。WFF还将与发射赞助商和发射提供商合作，提供必要的保证，以确保立方体卫星航天器不会对主航天器造成不利干扰，无论是技术上还是进度上的延误。

This is a transfer of funds to the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Wallops Flight Facility (NASA WFF) for management and engineering services in support of NSF-sponsored satellite mission to be launched by the National Reconnaissance Office in August 2010. The NSF sponsored nano-satellite is a "triple (3U) cubesat" that will utilize the Poly-Picosat Orbital Deployer (P-POD) system. The purpose of the NSF nano-satellite mission is an atmospheric science experiment aimed at investigating Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes. NASA WFF will provide technical assistance to NSF for the preparation, documentation, and test of the cubesat system. WFF will also work with the launch sponsor, and launch provider to provide necessary assurances that the Cubesat spacecraft will not adversely interfere with the primary spacecraft, either technically or via schedule delays.
