The GRIPS team integrated and tested their balloon payload at NASA’s Columbia Scientific Balloon Facility in Palestine, Texas, July 18-Aug. 28, 2015. After putting the finishing touches on the payload inside the hangar, the team moved GRIPS outside to test its solar panels and communications links. GRIPS will launch on a scientific balloon from McMurdo Station in Antarctica in December 2015 to study high-energy particle radiation released from the sun in conjunction with solar flares.
