Sounding rockets are multi-stage solid propellant rockets used for probing the upper atmospheric regions as part of the nation\u2019s space research and experimentation efforts. The annual suborbital missions flown by the program provide researchers with unparalleled opportunities to build, test, and fly new concepts that support NASA\u2019s strategic vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a continuation of support as Peraton has an enduring relationship with NASA missions, including the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) and Wallops Flight Facility (WFF). Peraton will design, manufacture, integrate, test and conduct mission launch operations for a wide range of highly complex suborbital payloads and launch vehicles for NASA\u2019s Sounding Rockets Program Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The work will be performed at Wallops and White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico; remote launch sites including Poker Flat Research Range in Fairbanks, Alaska, and Andoya Space Center with sites in Andenes and Svalbard, Norway; and mobile launch sites including Reagan Test Site in the Kwajalein Atoll and Equatorial Launch Australia in Nhulunbuy, Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNSROC IV will continue to be the flagship program of Peraton\u2019s suborbital rocket capabilities that also includes adjacent missions for the DoD and military services,\u201d said Roger Mason, Ph.D., president, Space &amp; Intelligence sector. \u201cWe\u2019re honored to be a trusted enabler for these key missions and look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership with NASA and the Princess Anne region.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peraton has won a competitive award to support the NASA Sounding Rocket Operations Contract&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2351,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[221],"tags":[219,210,211,215,214],"class_list":["post-2329","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-global-news","tag-indian-space-magazines","tag-indian-space-news","tag-space-magazines","tag-space-news-online","tag-space-news-today"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2329","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2329"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2329\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2352,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2329\/revisions\/2352"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2351"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2329"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2329"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spacepreneurmag.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2329"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
