Raytheon Co. has won a $33.7 million contract to support the Air Force’s hypertemporal imaging space experiment payload.

Hypertemporal imaging is crucial to understanding the dynamic nature of the systems and processes of the Earth.

The primary objective of the hypertemporal imaging space experiment payload effort is to design, fabricate, test, and deliver a space-flight ready instrument capable of conducting hypertemporal imaging from a geosynchronous earth orbit, according to the Defense Department.

Work will be performed in El Segundo, Calif., and is expected to be completed in January 2017.
