April 6, 2023
The grand opening included tours of the new facility, a celebratory event and remarks from UArizona President Robert C. Robbins, Senior Vice President for Research and Innovation Elizabeth "Betsy" Cantwell, UArizona Space Institute Director Tim Swindle, and Associate Vice President for Planning, Design and Construction and University Architect Peter Dourlein.
"You can't translate research into applied science without an investment in fundamental discovery," Robbins said. "I thank Dr. Cantwell and everyone that works with her for providing the framework to support our faculty, staff and students to help have that fundamental discovery and translate those discoveries into commercial products that make the world a better place."
