Northrop Grumman’s Baltimore-area campus expands amid the journey back into space

In some ways, NASA’s journey to send humans back to the moon and beyond runs through the Baltimore region. Adjacent to Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, a three-story, 55,000-square-foot complex sits on the grounds of Northrop Grumman’s company site, with offices and production areas equipped with environmentally controlled 10K- and 100K-class clean rooms, remote sensing, robotic technology and augmented reality devices. It’s the company’s newest — and largest — Maryland Space Assembly and Test facility.
