The supported one launch in the last week, but it was a big one!

β€’Falcon Heavy Roman Space Telescope Launch

This launch brought the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope into orbit, and it is one serious piece of celestial scientific hardware πŸ”­

It has a field of view that is 100 times greater than its predecessors πŸ‘€

Within its first 5 years it is projected to survey over a billion galaxies, which is something that would've previously taken other observatories hundreds of years to accomplish.

Space exploration took a giant leap forward with this mission, and the support of SLD 45 was key to getting this momentous achievement off the ground.

Who knows what sort of discoveries it will find? What do you think it will reveal? Let us know in the comments πŸ˜„

πŸŽ‰ Congratulations to Team Patrick's and Team Cape's Staff Sergeant selects! πŸŽ‰

Last week, Team Patrick and Team Cape hosted a Staff Sergeant release party to celebrate the newest Staff Sergeants of the Air Force πŸ‘

From follower to leader, making Staff Sergeant in the Air Force is a significant milestone. It marks the transition from a junior enlisted Airman to a Noncommissioned Officer, or as we like to call it: the backbone of the US armed forces.
