NASA’s STORIE (Storm Time O+ Ring current Imaging Evolution) instrument is shown here installed on the Space Test Program – Houston 11 (STP-H11) payload, a partnership between the U.S. Space Force and NASA, at the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. It is covered in blanketing material to protect STORIE from the space environment.
