Our support includes providing engineering products and services for the International Space Station (ISS), Space Shuttle, and other spacecraft flight programs; design, development, certification, and production of hardware and software; operation and maintenance of on-site laboratories and facilities; and research and development of new technology. We also provide curatorial services for NASA’s astromaterials collections, which include lunar rocks, meteorites, and returned samples from the Genesis and Stardust missions. We are responsible for several projects related to the new vision for space exploration, including the Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) Parachute Assembly System, CEV Crew Module Hypervelocity Impact Testing, and James Webb Space Telescope test facility modifications. We are also involved in prototype development for the next generation of rovers for extraterrestrial exploration. Jacobs’ ESC Group was the large business recipient of the 2010 NASA George M.
