Genesis Solar Wind Sample Curation Facility

The controlled access facility designed and constructed for storing and examining Genesis solar wind samples consists of two adjacent laboratories, both ISO Class 4 cleanrooms (vertical laminar flow, ULPA filtered). One cleanroom is equipped with ultrapure water (UPW) for experimental cleaning of containers and tools used in handling the solar wind samples, flight hardware and witness plates. The ultrapure water is also used for cleaning the solar wind samples. The other cleanroom is for long-term nitrogen storage of samples and for examination and processing of Genesis samples.
