The Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) environmental testing team poses with the bagged Ocean Color Instrument (OCI) behind them in the acoustic chamber prior to testing. The acoustic testing will ensure that functionality of OCI is not impaired by severe launch environments. OCI is a highly advanced optical spectrometer that will be used to measure properties of light over portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It will enable continuous measurement of light at finer wavelength resolution than previous NASA satellite sensors, extending key system ocean color data records for climate studies. OCI is PACE's (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem) primary sensor built at Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD.
