NASA Radiological Control Center Case Studies
If the most critical part of your mission lasts only 50 seconds,the right technology can make the difference. When NASAlaunches a vehicle that includes a radioisotope power source,the first crucial seconds of the launch must be monitored bythe NASA Radiological Control Center (RADCC), which isresponsible for monitoring, and coordinating protective actionsin the unlikely event of a launch accident that releasesradioactive material in the launch area. The job of RADCC scientists became a lot easier in Novemberwhen the Mars Science Lab lifted off from the Kennedy SpaceCenter. This was the first mission using a newly redesignedand reconfigured RADCC, with a complicated array of newtechnology made simple and seamless thanks to the Crestroncontrol system.
