NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has announced that it will remain closed through Monday due to its location within the mandatory evacuation zone of the Eaton Fire. The laboratory released a statement on Wednesday detailing the steps being taken to ensure the safety of its facilities and personnel.
According to JPL, all facilities, labs, and hardware at the center have been secured and protected. Operations of the Deep Space Network, typically conducted at JPL, have been relocated to a backup operations center offsite to ensure continuity of essential functions.
