Abstract: The IEEE is privileged to have a tour the Canadian Space Agency’s David Florida Laboratory, which is part of the Communications Research Centre complex, Carling Ave. The NEOS-Sat is scheduled to be there for its test program. Also the M3M-Sat is scheduled to arrive on 8 Oct for 60 days of testing. There is no guarantee that both birds will be visible – Thermal Vac, Anechoic Chamber etc, may prohibit – but there is a likelihood that at least one will be on show. The tour party is limited to 16 persons. Prior registration is a requirement.
