This blog follows the progress of the LRO mission through Integration and Testing at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and launch site processing at KSC\Astrotech. Its purpose is to enable communication to the entire LRO Team about the status of ongoing activities.

LRO was launched June 18th, 2009 at 5:32pm EDT from KSC. This BLOG will follow the progress of the mission as LRO travels to the Moon and establishes orbit around it.

This BLOG will be periodically updated during LRO's early mission but as the nominal mission unfolds the official NASA LRO website and the LRO Science Instrument's own websites will evolve into a more interesting sources of LRO science results as postings appear there first and LRO engineering and operations (source of this site) will become increasingly routine.

Status 11/8 @9:30am

Completed the installation of the LVA cold ring. Currently we are installing the blanket over the test connector panels, TCs to the catbed heaters and the Star Tracker OGSE.

The SAS power harness has been secured to the enclosure by Brian.

Other things on the docket today include installing the LOLA GSE and opening up the blanket on the SAS gimbal and installing TCs.
