Center Director Jim Kennedy presents a NASA Public Service Award to Douglas Britt of the Dynamac Corp. at a dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Space Life Sciences Lab hosted by NASA-Kennedy Space Center and the state of Florida at the new lab. Britt received the award for his many years of exceptional service to NASA in managing the Life Sciences contracts at the Kennedy Space Center and his contributions to conceptualization and collaborations that helped make the Space Life Sciences Lab possible. Completed in August, the facility encompasses more than 100,000 square feet and was formerly known as the Space Experiment Research and Processing Laboratory or SERPL. The state, through the Florida Space Authority, built the research lab which is host to NASA, NASAs Life Sciences Services contractor Dynamac Corp., Bionetics Corp., and researchers from the University of Florida. Dynamac Corp. leases the facility. The Florida Space Research Institute is responsible for gaining additional tenants from outside the NASA community.
