Welcome to Antarctica, GUSTO! 👋

Our C-130 aircraft took its first-ever flight to Antarctica to deliver the galactic observatory last weekend. GUSTO will fly on a zero-pressure balloon from McMurdo Station in December 2023 and will map a portion of the Milky Way galaxy and nearby Large Magellanic Cloud. This flight is just one example of how our C-130 aircraft supports our suborbital missions around the world.
