Saalex Corporation’s ELVIS 3 Team to Assist NASA with PACE Launch

Mission Will Enable Groundbreaking Observations to Decipher Earth’s Climate Dynamics

Camarillo, CA and Rockledge, FL (December 18, 2023) – Saalex Corporation’s Expendable Launch Vehicle Integration Services (ELVIS) 3 team is set to provide essential support services for NASA’s upcoming PACE launch, scheduled to launch no earlier than February 6, 2024.
