Goodrich Celebrates 50 Years in Space, Remains in the High Frontier

CHARLOTTE, N.C., March 30, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Goodrich Corporation
(NYSE: GR) is celebrating its 50th year of working in advanced space programs,
and continues its pioneering role and contributions to the nation's defense
and the furthering of mankind's knowledge from the high frontier.

On June 25, 1959, the world's first space-borne intelligence, surveillance and
reconnaissance (ISR) satellite was launched on the then-classified Corona
program with a Goodrich ISR Systems payload. The Corona program mission was
to take pictures from space of the former Soviet Bloc countries, and it
continued to do so through 1972.

Since 1959, Goodrich ISR Systems has continuously provided sophisticated,
high-reliability systems to various missions, including programs such as the
Hubble Space Telescope and the Chandra X-Ray Telescope. Goodrich ISR Systems
continues to apply its space expertise in support of customers and partners on
new satellite programs. Current contracts include support to GPS III, the
James Webb Space Telescope, SBIRS-High, NPOESS, ORS Sat-1 and Japan's ASNARO
satellite.

Tom Bergeron, President ISR Systems, stated, "Our rich history at Goodrich ISR
Systems over the past 50 years of providing innovative, highly-capable space
systems supporting critical missions will continue well into the next
generation of technologies and capabilities in support of our mission
partners."

Goodrich ISR Systems space products and capabilities will be on display at the
National Space Symposium in Colorado Springs from March 30 through April 2,
where experts will be available from company sites in Danbury, Conn., Ithaca,
N.Y., and Albuquerque, N.M.
