FUV is continuing its series of successful tests and calibrations at CSL in Belgium. Once all of instrument’s accelerometers have been mounted, the Z-axis vibration test will be conducted. FUV is on schedule for delivery for integration in Utah, early in 2016. 

ICON’s Michelson Interferometer for Global High-resolution Thermospheric Imaging (MIGHTI) instrument includes two identical optical assemblies, one for each of the perpendicular fields of view that will observe thermospheric wind-vector and temperature profiles. An engineering unit of the optical assembly was completed and successfully vibration tested in June 2015 at the Naval Research Laboratory.
