   It was imperative that CLAES arrive in New Jersey in order, says Larry Burriesci, senior staff engineer at Lockheed. The slightest amount of moisture could have had serious consequences and could have delayed the scheduled launch of the space shuttle..
   
   We were very familiar with West Coast's work, recalls Burriesci. We gave the specifications the container had to meet and told their engineers to determine how to best protect CLAES..
   
   Those specifications included a free-breathing, desiccated environment, allowing moisture-free air to pass through the container.
   ...
   That type of climate change can greatly alter humidity levels, causing excess moisture to build, explains Burriesci. The slightest amount of moisture could have condensed in and clogged the valves on CLAES..
   
   The Desi Paks, which adsorbed all moisture before it could reach CLAES, prevented such damage. CLAES arrived in New Jersey in perfect condition and was assembled onto the UARS.
   
   The fully assembled UARS was shipped by ocean barge to the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, FL.
   ...
   Adds Burriesci, CLAES arrived in excellent condition, with no problems whatsoever. The satellite is still in space and is still performing in excellent fashion.
