Thermacore recently delivered Constant Conductance Heat Pipes (CCHPs) to NASA in support of the agency’s Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission. Thermacore also delivered high thermally conductive k-Core® structural components for the agency’s Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) program supporting the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM). NASA’s GPM program seeks to measure the distribution, amount, rates and the associated heat release or precipitation throughout the world. NASA’s TIRS program is one of two programs that develop scientific instruments for the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM) satellite. The TIRS instrument is a two-channel thermal imager that was developed to provide radiometrically calibrated, geo-Iocated thermal image data of the earth’s surface. LDCM is a collaboration between NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey that will provide measurements of the Earth’s terrestrial and Polar Regions in the visible, near-infrared, short wave infrared, and thermal infrared spectrums.Learn more from Thermacore.
