BurstCube Assembly and Testing (SVS14167 - Walls of BurstCube Installation)

About

In this timelapse video from 2023, Goddard engineers Julie Cox and Paul Lestingi prepare the rectangular aluminum frame that will house BurstCube’s internal components and lower it onto the baseplate. The first section shows Cox staking screwheads, which involves the application of a special kind of glue that ensures the screws don’t loosen and fills in any potential gaps to help make the spacecraft housing light-tight. The second section shows the same action from above. In the next, Cox and Lestingi carefully settle the frame over BurstCube’s internal components.Credit: NASA/Sophia Roberts
