Northrop Grumman built the Aqua space platform and integrated its NASA-provided science instruments. The spacecraft is based on Northrop Grumman's modular, standardized T330 bus, a design with common subsystems easily scalable to the mission-specific needs of this and future earth observing missions. Comfortable weight, power and footprint margins readily accommodate payload replacement/refinement without impacting the basic design or the development schedule.
