JET PROPULSION LABORATORY- JPL NASA PATCH

Description

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory is a unique national research facility that carries out robotic space and Earth science missions.
JPL helped open the Space Age by developing America's first Earth-orbiting science satellite, creating the first successful interplanetary spacecraft, and sending robotic missions to study all the planets in the solar system as well as asteroids, comets and Earth's moon.
In addition to its missions, JPL developed and manages NASA's Deep Space Network, a worldwide system of antennas that communicates with interplanetary spacecraft.
