SAC-B satellite assembly

This photo shows the SAC-B satellite following assembly and testing in the cleanroom of INVAP in Villa Golf, near Bariloche, Argentina. In this photo, the CUBIC instrument has already been integrated into the satellite (it is the large rectangular aluminum box on top of the satellite). The satellite is being lifted off the integration cart in preparation for shipping to Brazil for environmental testing.
