STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. - The former Mississippi Army Ammunition Plant will be formally turned over to NASA's Stennis Space Center during a ceremony Aug. 24. With acquisition of the 1.6 million square-foot plant, which hasn't made munitions since 1990, NASA will increase the total facility space at Stennis by about 33 percent. A dozen employers, including Pratt and Whitney Rocketdyne, the Government Printing Office and the Department of Energy, already are located in portions of the space. The ceremony is scheduled for 9 a.m. CDT. (NASA, 08/19/11)
